Snyder's Flats is a 100-hectare former gravel pit that has been restored as a natural area with ponds, new forests, grasslands and other features.
The conservation area is on Snyder's Flats Road, west of Sawmill Road near the village of Bloomingdale in Woolwich Township (Map).
The ponds provide habitat for several fish species that live in the ponds as well as the nearby Grand River. The forest was planted in conjunction with the Kitchener-Conestoga Rotary Club.
There is a 4.5 kilometre looped trail with interpretive signs that explain the features of Snyder's Flats.
