Crawford Lake Conservation Area

There is so much to explore at Crawford Lake, with trails for hiking, snowshoeing and cross-country skiing, as well as a trail filled with larger-than-life wood carvings of species at risk and a boardwalk that winds around the lake. The boardwalk is stroller-friendly, and the carvings are kid-approved, so families with children can turn this park into their own nature-based classroom. The Longhouse Village, which features three reconstructed fifteenth-century longhouses and a Three Sisters Garden, is a perfect way to learn more about the Indigenous peoples who lived around Crawford Lake long before it was known by that name.
