This family's experience:

Activities: We stayed overnight at Greenwich State Park using our Parks Canada pass. We enjoyed the dunes and the hiking trails. We walked through woods, abandoned fields, and ponds, including Bowley Pond

Highlights: Greenwich is where the largest sand dunes on the island are located. The views from the trails are magnificent. We sang loudly on our way back at dusk after hearing a noise ✨
