This nature reserve features a short walking trail with streams, small waterfalls, and numerous places where the water flows have cut round "potholes" into the surrounding bedrock. Vault toilets and picnic tables are provided. Accessible year round but not maintained in winter—the access road is not plowed and the toilets are locked.
Situated roughly halfway between Wawa and White River, Obatanga once hosted a 132-site campground, but was shut down and placed in "non-operating" status by funding cuts in 2013. While overnight camping is not permitted, day use access is still allowed. Hiking and canoeing are the key draws here; the park is stocked with mature Jack Pine, and is the starting point for the demanding canoe route down the Dog (University) River.
