TLTV Ep 59 - Riverwood (Mississauga)

Located in central Mississauga and nestled predominantly along the east bank of the historic Credit River, the 150 acre Riverwood property is a special place. A unique all-season destination, visitors enjoy walking paths comprised of 200 to 350 year old trees and mixed old growth forests. Riverwood also offers a bird terrace, an art studio/visual arts centre, a wetland area and a variety of other historic buildings. Visual Arts Mississauga offers art classes, educational programs, as well as many other learning opportunities. With woodland trails, splendid wildlife and glorious views, Riverwood is an ideal site to observe and enjoy the best of what Mother Nature has to offer. In this video we'll get a look at the paths through the property and visit the MacEwan House Art Studio and the Visual Art Centre. We'll meet some friendly creatures and one rather large predator along the way. We'll see some nice boardwalks and bridges before climbing the stone stairs to Chappell House (the home of The Riverwood Conservancy) which is surrounded by colourful gardens.
