Where can I explore nature?

Hiking is available at the following Conservation Halton parks:

Environmental Ethics and Trail Etiquette

Conservation Halton Trails pass through sensitive natural areas that protect fragile plants and wildlife. Staying on the marked trails, not littering, keeping your dog on a leash and not removing natural materials helps protect these beautiful parks. Many of the trails are shared by hikers, mountain bikers, cross country skiers and equestrians.  Keeping to the right allows others to pass when trails are busy.

Hiking Safety

There are some risks associated with hiking on trails through natural areas. Many trails follow cliff edges and shorelines of creeks and lakes with no barriers from steep slopes or water.  Trail surfaces can also be slippery when wet or icy. High winds can make hiking unsafe so trails may close during times of high winds. Wearing appropriate footwear, exercising caution in hazardous areas and watching children carefully will help make your hiking adventure safe and enjoyable.
