Access Issues
Some muddy sections, some rocky sections and some river crossing sections that require shoes with good traction or hiking boots. Not really a family-friendly trail due to a few technical sections (mostly the river crossing).

Description
Wolf Trail travels through mature forest and passes by one of the highest points in Gatineau Park. Expect great views at Mahingan Lookout and Tawadina Lookout (slightly off trail). The trail is a mixture of rocks, roots, and dirt. It can be quite muddy in the spring and after a heavy rain. It is great all year round, especially in the fall and it becomes a fun trail to snowshoe in the winter. Signage throughout the whole trip. There is a river crossing (during Fall season) that may be too technical for some.
