Winter Weather Notice
Conservation areas remain open daily from sunrise to sunset for passive winter recreation such as hiking and birdwatching. However, note that natural trails are not groomed for winter recreation such as cross-country skiing, and parking lots and sidewalks will be maintained on a ‘as-required’ basis.
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 may be closed. Please expect maintenance delays in the event of heavy snowfall.
Check NPCA conservation area pages on Facebook for closure postings, as these are updated regularly.
Port Davidson Conservation Area is located along the Welland River in the Township of West Lincoln. A vegetative buffer with mature trees help to provide wildlife covers and shades the river for fish and other species. An intimate nook at 0.2 hectares, shoreline fishing and river access await you.
