A dirt / gravel trail allows you to do anything from hiking to biking. There is a creek there that is nice for kayaking / canoeing. You can take the creek farther into the island or out onto the Niagara River depending on your experience. In the winter it is nice to hike, cross country ski, or snowshoe depending on the amount of snow.
