Property Info

This 200-acre parcel in north Carling contains a variety of forest and wetland habitats known to be home to bear, moose, and deer. Its location adjacent to the Upper Shebeshekong Wetlands extends the habitat range available to the many at-risk species who rely on this conservation reserve. Its proximity to Shawanaga First Nation strengthens protected land connectivity and stewardship in the immediate area.

This property represents the first strategic acquisition towards the Georgian Bay Land Trust’s Corridor Project in Carling Township. The Corridor Project aims to preserve our region’s ecological connectivity by creating a protected habitat corridor along the eastern shore of Georgian Bay. In Carling, the Corridor will be constructed through a network of strategically protected parcels running north to south through the township, connecting to existing protected lands.
