Jessups Falls Conservation Area is a popular summer vacation spot located just west of Plantagenet Village, Ontario. This 13 acre park is situated along the South Nation River, opening up into a vast bay with deep waters and rocky outcrops. The region is a popular picnicking, hiking, and boating destination. It is also considered a fishing paradise, with anglers catching Walleye, Muskellunge, Smallmouth Bass, and Pike. Even if you don’t want to cast out a line, you can enjoy watching the fish as they jump from the water. Relax in the shade of the pine and oak trees, or take a walk among the wildflowers that line the trails. Jessup Falls is also an Area of Natural and Scientific Interest, so keep your eyes peeled for the many species at risk that live within the conservation area.
