The Ferns and Lakes Trail is a beautiful journey into one of Northwest Ohio's most unique natural landscapes. Beginning near Mallard Lake this peaceful loop follows Gale Run, a small headwater stream, through a landscape of shady woods, wetlands, ponds, and lush fern filled areas before continuing toward Beaver Lake.
The trail offers an opportunity to experience the remarkable diversity that makes Oak Openings so special. The surrounding woods provide habitat for a variety of wildlife. Birdwatchers may spot seasonal visitors such as barred owls, chestnut sized warblers, and kinglets.
The changing landscape is part of the trail's charm. Quiet water, woodland shade, lush vegetation, and the distinctive habitats of the Oak Openings region create a hike that feels wonderfully removed from the surrounding world.
For anyone who enjoys forests, wetlands, wildlife, birding, and the quiet beauty of Northwest Ohio.
