NB 1-12 Green Ribbon Trail and Marsh

The Green Ribbon Trail is a memorial dedicated to all missing and murdered children, inspired by the tragic story of Kristen French, a young murder victim from St. Catharines.

Park in the small marked lot opposite Courtland Street.

This site features a footbridge over Richardson's Creek, and a small marsh where Mute Swans and Wood Ducks nest.
