Springwater.

Springwater is a rural Simcoe County township wrapping the north and west of Barrie, anchored by the Minesing Wetlands — a Ramsar Wetland of International Importance covering roughly 6,000 hectares of fen, swamp, and marsh on the Nottawasaga River floodplain. East of the wetlands, Copeland Forest Resources Management Area covers 1,800 hectares of multi-use Crown forest on the Oro Moraine, with track-set cross-country trails in winter and a network of forest roads and informal singletrack the rest of the year.
