Crawford Lake is the location of a rare meromictic lake, a 15th-century reconstructed longhouse village, and over 19 km of trails while the Rattlesnake Point Conservation area protects 264 hectares of lush forests and limestone cliffs.
Rattle Point Conservation Area also boasts five lookout spots that provide you with a birds-eye view of the Niagara Escarpment.
When you take a trip on the Parkbus you can combine both areas by hiking the 4.7km Nassagaweya Canyon Trail which connects Rattlesnake Point and Crawford Lake.
