What does one do on a summer day when temperatures are expected to hit the mid 30’s as was forecast on July 17?
Get up early, or relatively early, and hit a nature trail!
With a quick search on my newly downloaded app, ‘AllTrails’ , I was reading about Neudorf Nature Trail Loop. It read…”6.1 kilometer moderately trafficked loop located near Neudorf, Saskatchewan that features a lake and is good for all skill levels.”
The decision was made.
Leaving Yorkton, the skies were filled with smoke, but as we approached Neudorf, all was clear.
The beginning of the trail has several educational signs indicating the type of birds one might encounter on their adventure. We signed the guest book, grabbed one of the provided maps and were on our way.
The two-hour trek took us on lots of little trails - the map was handy - sighting an abundance of flowers, butterflies and birds, but no larger wildlife.
The well groomed trails provided a bit of exercise, and fresh air before the heat of the afternoon with a bonus – almost two pounds of Saskatoons and raspberries which would be enjoyed later with ice cream.
And only two wood ticks!
