is an “urban” park, it is, as the name suggests, a national park and is managed by Parks Canada.
While the exact features of the new park have yet to be revealed, Dave Barton, the Mayor of Uxbridge, noted that the lands are perfect for hiking, mountain biking, snowshoeing, and cross-country skiing. The park could also contribute to scientific research and environmental monitoring. Located in the Oak Ridges Moraine, which is part of the Greenbelt, the park may include up to 532 hectares of provincially-owned land. The study of the park’s potential scope may include the 598-hectare Durham Regional Forest and a 120 hectare parcel of land that is currently owned by the Township of Uxbridge.
