第8区

保护哈尔顿公园内最新的公园,以前被称为凯尔索采石场,暂时被称为8区。从1950年代末到1990年代中期,该地区作为加拿大最大的集料生产地之一提供石灰石。今天,以前的采石场已被改造成一个美丽的自然区,依偎在悬崖上,外面有小径相通。目前,野生动物已经开始返回该地区,像寡妇蜻蜓、灰树蛙、尖头鹰和大黄雀等物种都在利用恢复后的栖息地。

Area 8 is officially closed for the season.

Do I need to make a reservation to visit?
No, reservations are not required to visit Conservation Halton Parks; however, they are recommended. By booking in advance, you can guarantee your spot and save on gate fees. Reservations can be made at parkvisit.ca.

Are visitors allowed to swim at Area 8?
Currently, swimming at Area 8 is only permitted through our Wellness Series open-water swims. You can learn more about our Wellness Series here. We look forward to establishing a swimming beach at Area 8 in future.

Is fishing allowed in the lake at Area 8?
We do not allow fishing at present as we are working to stock the reservoir. Once fish counts and size reach levels to support fishing, this will become an available activity at the park.

Is boating allowed in the reservoir at Area 8?
Boating is currently allowed at Area 8, but through Conservation Halton boat rentals only. You may add a single or double kayak or a canoe rental to your weekend reservation.

Do I need to book a boat rental in advance?
We strongly recommend booking your boat rental in advance as boats are available on a first-come, first-served basis. To book in advance, add your boat rental selection to your park reservation at parkvisit.ca

How much are boat rentals?
Boat rentals range from $22 to $32 for an hour-long time slot.

Why don’t you allow outside watercraft at Area 8? 
As Area 8’s reservoir is currently free from invasive species such as zebra mussels, limiting the use of boats to rentals only helps to ensure that bilge water or debris from other bodies of water are not accidentally introduced at Area 8.

Are dogs allowed at Area 8?
Yes, dogs are allowed at Area 8 on-lead (dogs may also swim on-lead). Area 8 is home to many species of waterfowl and other birds, so we require that visitors keep their pets on-lead at all times unless otherwise posted.

Why is Area 8 open on weekends only?
Area 8 is a new park that recently opened to the public. We intend to update the park’s hours in future as the space continues to develop and visitor demand rises.
