Difficulty: Moderate
The Baldspot is located in Nipigon in Ontario’s Superior Country. This is a (2.8 km) out and back trail that features ridge top lookouts over the town and the Nipigon River. Once you reach the top of this trail you will find a bare open space amid the mountains foliage. Hence the name “the Bald Spot” This is the ideal place to have a picnic while overlooking the town below. Leashed dogs allowed.
Travel directions: The trailhead is on Greenmantle Drive, 100 meters north of the Wadsworth intersection shortly after the pavement turns to gravel.
