Mills Block Forest contains a 4 km hiking trail. There is a beaver dam and a few neat benches that people have made along the way. You can get a view of Lake Superior when the leaves are down from the higher spots. My favourite part of this hike is visiting the remains of a quartz mine by taking a little side trail.
Mills Block Forest is located on John Street Road at the corner of Community Hall Road, just ten minutes west of Highway 11/17.

This was another interesting hike,we will take your advice and go when the leaves are down too,to see the view.
I’m curious though,was the old car in the bush when you were out there,or is this a new attraction? We took a picture of it and will see if we can find a car buff who may be able to tell what it was,but being as it’s pretty much just a shell,it may remain a mystery.
Yes I think the old car has been there a while. Did you find the mine?
No,I didn’t find the mine,it was getting late and we spent the day in Dorion on a few of the trails you listed,and the mosquito’s were getting bad,but i will definately go out looking again.I did notice a few side trails though so i hope i pick the right side trail.
