Located within Port Colborne, Ontario, is Mud Lake Conservation Area: a 280 acre park dedicated to preserving the region’s wildlife habitats. The area hosts both wetland and woodland habitats — home to both migratory and resident birds and other fish and animal species. The region is known for its numerous rare bird sightings and welcomes both expert and novice birdwatchers to explore this unique setting! Wander through the many trails that range in difficulty from easy 20 minute walks, to hour-long nature hikes. There are also three wildlife viewing blinds (small hideaways to keep you well hidden while you spot the animals in their natural habitat) that are accessible by canoe.
