Michichi Creek Boardwalk

The Michichi Creek Boardwalk is an interpretive trail consisting of raised decking, a shale path, and grassed walkway maintained by Starland County. This trail highlights the importance of the Red Deer River Watershed, as well as the importance of co-existing with the beavers present at the site. The presence of a beaver dam creates a year-round wetland area that provides a habitat for many birds, fish, and mammals. This 1 km boardwalk has 11 educational signs which provide information on the history of the dam, flora, fauna, soils, geology, invasive species, and beaver co-existence. The trail begins at the parking lot right when you enter the Michichi Dam Campground recreation area.
