The Taquanyah Conservation Area is a 136-hectare property in the Carolinian Zone. The species found in the area are typically found much further south in America.
Before 2005, there used to be a dam in the area, but it stopped operating. This allowed the area to be restored by adding new wetlands, ponds, and trails. With the help of Ducks Unlimited Canada, Six Nations of the Grand River, Habitat Haldimand, and the Haldimand Stewardship Network, the conservation project succeeded.
Today, you can enjoy a beautiful nature walk on the trails with interpretive signs to help you understand the property.
