Supporting one of the best cliff ecosystems in the Niagara Escarpment, Mount Nemo Conservation Area is littered with green ferns and limestone boulders in it's old growth forest. Thousand year old cedar trees and ancient caves can be explored along the cliff edge trail.

Set on 169 hectare, Mount Nemo was established in 1959 in the City of Burlington. The area is part of the world biosphere reserve of the Niagara Escarpment and home to a wide range of plants and animals.

Mount Nemo offers outdoor enthusiasts a variety of activities including 5km of cliff edge hiking trails, rock climbing and mountain biking. There is also direct connections to the rest of the Bruce Trail.

Pets are allowed but they must be on a leash at all times.
