At this point, you have a choice.

Either:

• bear RIGHT and follow the shorter 7 km MAIN ROUTE alongside the QEW and Wetland Ridge Side Trail to Niagara College. The main Wetland Ridge Side Trail to the right is shorter and flatter, and bypasses the buildings and entrance road of Wood End Conservation Area.

- OR -

• keep LEFT and take the longer 8.4 km ALTERNATE ROUTE up the hill, through the grounds of Woodend Conservation Area, and along the rugged talus slopes near the Niagara College Vineyards at the base of the Escarpment. If you keep left and go up the hill, you will emerge onto the paved road at Wood End Conservation Area near the main building complex.
