Gully Lake Trail
Open year-round
Willard Kitchener MacDonald Trail, named for the Hermit of Gully
Lake, is 2.7 km long and starts about 2 km from Gully Lake Wilderness Trail
head. Willard’s Trail rolls gently through an old growth sugar maple and yellow
birch woods, its ground covered in evergreen wood fern and Christmas fern.
Passing over many former log sledding roads, the trail starts near Donald’s
Falls and ends at Meguma Falls which is on the earthquake fault line where the
continental plates of Meguma and Avalon collided 380 million years ago.
Trail Head Coordinates listed are at the junction with the Sandy
Cope Trail.
