The GRCA continues to closely monitor the COVID-19 situation in Ontario. The health, safety and well-being of our staff, volunteers and the community remain our highest priority. Please visit our COVID-19 Update page where you will find the most up-to-date information on impacts to GRCA programs and services.
Belwood Lake, Guelph Lake, Laurel Creek, Pinehurst Lake and Shade's Mills offer formal winter programs. Winter programming is subject to change, based on weather conditions. Also, conservation areas and/or trails may close from time to time during the operating season, sometimes without notice for capacity reasons, safety reasons following a storm, or due to a special event. Check our Conservation Area Status page to learn if an area is open or closed.
Services at some conservation areas during the winter months are limited, and may include a parking lot, garbage containers and information signs.
Is ice fishing open? How about cross-country ski trails? The status of these activities, and more, can be found on our Conservation Area and Activities Status page. Information is updated in real time as conditions change. To avoid disappointment, check the current status before arriving.
