Francis Edward Williams Trailhead

Francis Edward Williams Trailhead to the Ministik Fire Tower
This route offers an "alternative" starting point for one of the "must-do" Ministik hikes: a trek to the Ministik Firetower. The route is more "direct," but it is decidedly "rustic," taking you through long stretches of hay fields until you reach the Waskahegan Trail leading to the tower.
