Scanlon Creek Conservation Area

Bark Park is also open now. Parking is complimentary while amenities are limited.
About Scanlon Creek
Scanlon Creek Conservation Area is a hikers’ haven, a picnicking paradise, a
birder’s delight and a photographer’s dream. Explore forests, marshlands, and glacial erratics, enjoy spring wildflowers, or the vibrant fall leaves and see plenty of birds and other wildlife as you hike the expansive trail system covering most of the 300 hectare park.
Serving both environmental and recreational needs, the park is a nature preserve for flora and fauna and home to a
Bark Park for our canine friends.
Please note: The Bark Park will be closed from April 19 - 30 for annual maintenance.
