At 850 acres the Hillman Marsh is a significant and beautiful marsh habitat, popular with birdwatchers during the Spring migration, especially with the recent addition of the 85 acre Shorebird Habitat, which commonly attracts rare species. Over 100 species of birds use the Hillman Marsh as a stop over during migration. In addition to birding there are over 5 kms. of hiking trails, canoeing and a swimming beach on Lake Erie.
