Dundas Valley Conservation Area, Protected area in Ontario, Canada.
The Dundas Valley Conservation Area spans 1,200 hectares of Carolinian forests, meadows, streams, and geological formations within the Niagara Escarpment.
The land formation occurred over 10,000 years ago through glacial activity, with meltwater and stream flows shaping the current valley topography.
The Hermitage ruins remain as a testament to early settlement, featuring crumbling structures from a grand estate that burned down in 1934.
The conservation area offers 40 kilometers of trails for hiking, cycling, and horseback riding, with multiple parking locations at Governors Road, Artaban Road, and Hermitage.
The area contains 585 species of flora and fauna, including one-third of Canada's endangered species within its UNESCO World Biosphere Reserve designation.
