Clarington, Lower-tier municipality in Durham Region, Ontario, Canada
Clarington spans 611 square kilometers across eastern Durham Region, combining urban developments with protected farmlands along Lake Ontario's waterfront trails.
The municipality emerged in 1974 through the merger of Bowmanville, Newcastle, Clarke and Darlington Townships, later adopting its current name in 1993.
Clarington maintains multiple seasonal parades throughout its communities of Bowmanville, Newcastle, Courtice, Orono, and Tyrone during winter celebrations.
Eight major highway exits connect Clarington to Toronto, with key access points including Courtice Road, Bowmanville Avenue, and Highway 35/115.
The Darlington Nuclear Generating Station and Durham-York Energy Centre establish Clarington as a central location for Ontario's power generation infrastructure.
