Wellwood'smasterplan
A master-planned community of over 1,600 homes — planned around nature, designed for wellness and built for connected living.
The natural corridors that run through Wellwood aren't leftover land. They're provincially protected, which means the greenspace behind your home stays greenspace. The trail network threads through it, linking the parks, the ponds and the river frontage into one continuous loop rather than a series of disconnected pockets.
Parks
16 acres of neighbourhood parks and greenspaces woven through the community, within walking distance of every home.
Natural corridors
196 acres of provincially protected greenspace — permanently preserved woodland and wetland.
Trail network
13 kilometres of integrated walking and cycling trails, connecting parks, ponds and the river.
Waterfront access
1.5 kilometres of protected river frontage, with kayaking, paddling and riverside walking on your doorstep.
Community ponds
Stormwater ponds designed as landscape features, with planted edges and pathways around them.
Gathering pavilions
Sheltered neighbourhood gathering spaces and activity areas for programming and everyday use.
Building communitythrough active living
Enjoy a vast network of greenspaces, activity areas and gathering spaces woven throughout the completed neighbourhood. This is the essence of Wellwood — fostering connections through health, wellness and movement.
