Milton's poem "Paradise Lost" and the words "immortal Amaranth". I do not think that Milton could be speaking of our Amaranth, because ours is a paradise found. Meadows, rivers, wetlands, wildlife, fields, farms, and forests cover this township to create a myriad of geographical features to explore.

The highlight of this area is the 47 km section of the former Canadian Pacific Railway, which is now used as a trail way for hikers, bikers, and most of all snowmobilers. The trail is kept in excellent condition and is a favorite for local and visiting sledders. Pick one of the twenty or so access points to get onto the trail way. A favorite point of access is on the corner of 15th side road and 3rd line Amaranth near the hamlet of Crombie.

Step back into the age of rail travel at Crombie's train-flagging station. The station was originally located at the corner of 3rd line and 20th side road Amaranth, and is now located within the Dufferin County Museum and Archives.
