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.
Willoughby Marsh Conservation Area is a swamp ecosystem and one of the largest forested wetlands in the eastern part of the Niagara Peninsula.
Located at the head of Tee, Usshers, Lyons and Black Creeks, this Conservation Area protects an important source for these area waterways. This water source is also characterized as a wildlife area where a small organic basin and a slough pattern of gently rolling wet and drier pockets are dominated by Maple and Oak trees, buttonbush and meadowsweet, and some shallow cattail marsh, providing cover and feeding areas for many animals. Some of the animals seen here are: Herons, Evening Grosbeaks, Northern Harriers, Redheaded Woodpeckers, Prothonotary Warblers, White-tailed deer and numerous amphibians.
A relatively untouched space, there are no formal trails or facilities. Bird watching, seasonal hunting and passive recreational activities can be enjoyed at this site.
For information on hunting at this site, please visit npca.ca/administration/hunting-application.
