The Grand River Conservation Authority is opening parks early to give people more options to get outside during the Stay-At-Home orders.
Overnight and seasonal camping is temporarily closed during the order. The GRCA has decided to pen parks early to help support the mental health and well-being of watershed residents. Starting April 23, all Grand River Parks, with the exception of the Elora Quarry, will be open for limited day-use access. They were originally supposed to open on May 1st.
All overnight and seasonal camping at Grand River Parks have been suspended and will remain closed until the Stay-At-Home order is lifted.
Those guests who have overnight campsite reservations booked while the stay-at-home order is in place will receive full refunds automatically.
The GRCA conservation areas will continue to operate at a reduced capacity. Guests are expected to follow all provincial and local public health guidelines including limiting travel outside of their region, unless absolutely necessary. Some washroom facilities will be open and garbage receptacles will be available.
Short visits are encouraged and you will be asked to take your garbage home with you if you can.
Access to picnic areas will be restricted for the duration of the order. Boat rentals and food concessions will remain closed for the season, as will swimming pools at Brant and Byng Island conservation areas and the splash pad at Elora Gorge Conservation Area.
