Glen Haffy Conservation Area

Recreational fishing at the edge of the city

Glen Haffy Conservation Area's hiking trails and vistas offer some of the most panoramic views in southern Ontario. Home to a trout pond stocked with rainbow trout, Glen Haffy also offers recreational fishers a great way to enjoy a summer afternoon, close to the city. This park is also home to a fish hatchery. Each year, thousands of rainbow trout are raised for stocking the ponds here and at Heart Lake Conservation Area. The proceeds generated by angling fees help fund the fish rearing program.
