Welcome to Central Lake Ontario Conservation Authority’s Conservation Area Exploration Kit! These kits are contained in a Back2Nature backpack—and is your window of opportunity to explore outdoor environments in all seasons, close to home or further afield. We offer the use of Exploration Kits free of charge to Durham Region residents to borrow through your local libraries. We have eight conservation areas in our jurisdiction for you to discover and explore! Get outside and take it all in!
