Crawford Lake Conservation Area, Protected conservation area in Milton, Canada.
Crawford Lake contains multiple geological formations, mixed forest ecosystems, and numerous hiking trails across the Niagara Escarpment landscape.
Archaeological excavations in 1971 revealed corn pollen and artifacts from an Iroquoian settlement, leading to the discovery of an eleven-longhouse village site.
The conservation area features three reconstructed longhouses representing Indigenous life, complete with traditional fireplaces, sleeping quarters, and recovered artifacts.
Visitors can access 19 kilometers of marked trails for hiking during summer and snowshoeing in winter, with direct connections to the Bruce Trail.
The meromictic lake maintains distinct water layers that never mix, preserving sediments that document environmental changes over several centuries.
