The Grand River Conservation Authority says it plans to reopen more parks and natural areas in the coming weeks amid the coronavirus pandemic.
It will begin with the reopening of Belwood Lake, Conestogo Lake, Guelph Lake and Rockwood conservation areas on Saturday for limited activities such as walking and birdwatching.
Those areas will be open between 8 a.m. and 6 p.m. and visitors without a Grand River Parks membership are asked to pay by cash in a payment box located at the gatehouse that remains closed.
Laurel Creek and Shade’s Mills conservation areas are also open for limited use and take credit card at the automatic gates.
