Six Nations of the Grand River 40

The Six Nations territory spans 46,000 acres along the Grand River, featuring Carolinian forests, traditional longhouses, and contemporary Indigenous settlements.

Following the American Revolutionary War in 1784, the Haldimand Proclamation granted 550,000 acres of land to Indigenous allies who supported the British Crown.

Members of the Mohawk, Onondaga, Oneida, Seneca, Tuscarora, and Cayuga Nations maintain their traditions through crafts, ceremonies, and educational programs.

Located one hour from Toronto, the reserve includes the town of Ohsweken with craft stores, dining establishments, and accommodations near nature trails.

This territory represents the largest First Nations reserve in Canada, where 28,520 registered members belong to six different Indigenous nations.
