Bob Hunter Memorial Park, Protected area in Markham, Ontario, Canada.
Bob Hunter Memorial Park is a protected area within Rouge National Urban Park featuring forests, meadows, wetlands, and habitats for wildlife. The site contains a mix of natural landscapes across its large grounds.
The protected area was established in 2006 as a memorial to environmental activist and Greenpeace co-founder Robert Hunter. The name honors his legacy and commitment to conservation.
The park serves as an educational center where schools organize field trips to teach students about local ecosystems and environmental preservation.
The site is accessible daily with a parking lot featuring electric vehicle charging stations. Walking paths allow visitors to explore the different habitats on foot.
A major reforestation project took place on the grounds in 2011, converting former farmland into forest and meadows. This project demonstrates ongoing efforts to restore the natural ecosystem.
