Check out a beautiful natural formation during your trip to Harrowsmith. Stop by The Big Rock. This one-kilometre loop on a walkable path through the woods brings you to a huge boulder standing proudly.
The boulder looks incredibly out of place, surrounded by flat land and trees, but it hints at a time long passed when natural ice movements could have carried this enormous piece of the earth into the forest. Worth a visit!
