Belwood Lake (Quarry)

Beach

Belwood Lake is 12km-long with excellent recreational opportunities such as boating, fishing, waterskiing, and of course, swimming. There are kayak rentals, motorboat rentals, the Belwood Sailing club, 3.3km of hiking trails around the conservation area, and a sandy beach for relaxing. The spring-fed quarry is a fantastic spot to cool off during the summer. The Shand Dam is on Belwood Lake, and offers a great view of the Grand River valley when you walk along it.
