Winter Weather Notice

All NPCA conservation areas remain open daily from sunrise to sunset for passive recreation such as hiking and birdwatching. However, note that trails are natural and not maintained for winter recreation. Parking lot and sidewalks will be maintained on a ‘as-required’ basis. 

Conservation area visitors are reminded to take precaution and prepare appropriately for the weather and trail conditions, especially when inclement weather and conditions may arise. In the event of inclement weather, NPCA conservation areas remain open, but activities and services may be limited and facilities such as the Centre for Conservation at Ball’s Falls may be closed.

Please be mindful of NPCA staff who work hard to ensure primary parking areas are cleared and plowed when visiting. Please check NPCA conservation area pages on Facebook for closure postings, as these are updated regularly.


The Stevensville Conservation Area is a passive recreational area located in the Town of Fort Erie. Visitors can experience a forest, meandering Black Creek, wetlands, a fishing pond and an open picnic area.

Conservation efforts continue at this area with the help of the Fort Erie Conservation Club (FECC). The FECC clubhouse can be found on the property.

On May 2023, the NPCA installed a brand new fishing pier at the conservation area. The project was completed in collaboration with the Fort Erie Conservation Club to enhance visitor experience and support community events such as the Kevin Hartman Annual Dishing Derby that took place this past Sunday.

The Stevensville Conservation Area has a number of marked trails along the creek.
