Activities: Free Admission, Hiking, Snowshoeing, Cross Country Skiing

Mosa Forest, or what is locally known as Skunk’s Misery, is one of the larger wooded sites in the Province, with a total area of 500 hectares. The County of Middlesex owns the majority, the LTVCA owns 121.3 hectares, with the remainder in private ownership. The land was purchased in order to protect and preserve a significant part of Skunk’s Misery Area of Natural and Scientific Interest, portions of a Provincially Significant Wetland and a designated Carolinian Canada Site. The Badder and Robinson Memorial Forest is located on the eastern limits of the Conservation Authority property. The memorial forest is open for dayuse. The remainder of the Conservation Authority forest is not open for public access in order to preserve this significant and sensitive woodlot.
