Really pristine and lush conservation area. Multiple picnic areas, a beautiful and serene river that runs along, lot of vegetation makes this a perfect space for any kind of outing. The picnic areas are especially large so even with bigger crowds, you will not get the feeling of being congested. You can set up your barbeques here as well, we saw a few of them. Be it with friend or family, both kind of groups can enjoy here. The trail is also interesting here, did not completely cover it but was surrounded well with the forest area.

Very beautiful park along the Credit River. We can easily access trails, especially walkers, wheelchairs, and strollers-friendly trails. very big place for a picnic spot. Also, a large number of free car Parking are available. Plenty of picnic tables, washrooms, covered pavilions, and group sites are available. Group sites can be reserved in advance. We can easily get the Picnic spot and Parking on the weekends. The only problem is we cannot get the chairs easily if we go in the afternoon. Better to bring your camera and binoculars for bird Watching and the beavers. Restrooms are not so clean compared with other parks in Brampton.

  • Tatheer Tasneem Khan

Was there in early spring, so it wasn't lush green. Yet there was the calm that would provide you a good break from routine city life. It is definely serene, quiet, mostly untouched and has a touch of wilderness so as to be called a conserve. A lovely place to be on a random weekend. As you enter, there comes initially a great green lawn but I trodded insides, mostly along the ravine. If you do the same do keep wary of the unstable bank. If you're lucky, you'll cross paths with some lovely wildlife, mostly seasonal birds. Tip: Take along water, mattress and some snacks if you plan to stay for long or are there with kids.

  • William Ascroft

Beautiful park along the Credit River, part of the Credit Valley Conservation Authority. Easy access trails, both paved and packed gravel make this park accessible for everyone, and walkers, wheelchairs, and strollers are friendly. Caution, however, in wet seasons as there is a tendency for water to pool, making walking difficult. Plenty of picnic tables and washrooms are avail le as well as covered pavilions and group sites. Group sites can be reserved in advance. Bring a camera and binoculars to watch birds and the beavers .

I m taking one star off for two reasons. First the road leading to parking lot is not in a good condition and very bumpy. Second the area is not best for finding many species The conservation has a picnic area with BBQ and park is busy as well. Great for hiking and access to the river side paths and main trail. Flat park so no height area or lookouts. Nice bridge and seen fishermen in the area. Salmon season I believe The trees and trails are well maintained

  • Setareh Gharaei

Very nice area. It’s a good park for having picnic, there are picnic benches and some shaded seating areas. Bbq is allowed but You should bring your own. It’s a great trail for along walking or biking. All the way is well maintained and it’s good for toddlers or parents with stroller. Large and free parking lot. Clean washrooms.

Very beautiful conservation area along a credit view river. Many varieties of natural plants and flowers are conserved in this park. People are doing the camping in this conservation area as well. Rest Rooms are available in the park and 3 picnic areas are available for having the group lunch and gatherings. There’s a nice view of credit river from the steel wooden walkway bridge in this park. #parksexplorer

  • Simone Ramgeet

A great space tucked away in Mississauga. This conservation area has trails for hiking or biking, picnic areas and the Credit river where you can fish. Overall its a lovely spot to spend outdoors with family.

Visited the place with my kids on Monday evening. There were very few people and good place for kids to play and enjoy. Followed Culham Trail for some distance. It is nice and clean area and kids will love it. There is good cycling track so you can enjoy. Good place to take kids for quick picnic. Carry mosquito spray if you are planning to visit in the evening during this time.

  • Javed Zafar

In the heart of Mississauga. South West corner of Derry and Mavis intersection. Wide green space on the Bank of the River. A conservation area with a trail through the woods provides a scenic view of the river through the thickets. The park has gazebos with BBQ grills, one right by the river.
Playground
Play area with swings and slides.
Restrooms
Porta cabins.

  • Mat Bienczyk

Great conservation in north Mississauga. There's many hiking trails around the park, picnic areas, seating areas, BBQ's, and washrooms. There's also a small river that flows through, allowing for fishing. The main trail goes all the way to the Conservancy building.

This was a great trail to walk through, and as I hiked around I was eyes all of the places you could ride trials on you MTB. There are great wetlands, ponds, park areas, bridges, and a nice connection with nature. The trails go on for a few KMS and it’s just a calming environment. Pack some water cuz it can get hot! Please like my review below!

  • Ivana M

Lovely trail, that meanders around ponds and along the Credit River, and extends into the Credit Valley Conservation area.
Restrooms
The restrooms are closed during winter season.
Picnic area
Picnic tables, and at least one sheltered picnic pavilion available, in nice nature setting, not far from parking and the trail.

  • Cory Sakai

Nice park for picnics and easy walks. Large fields with barbeque stands. The walks are there and back, not loops. The trail map incorrectly shows a nature trail across a bridge that no longer exists. Only the main bridge on the main path exists.

  • Ammar Al-Qaraghuli

Very becutiful, good landscaping, comparatively big when considering it's in the middle of GTA, fall colours time (second week of October) is the best time to visit Meadowvale Conservation Area. You can also visit and watch the fish migration form Lake Ontario northward in the Credit River in their final season More

  • Amanda

I like it here. There is a great paved trail, and there is also a trail that runs along the river, which gives you a little bit more access to some wildlife and views of the river. there are facilities at this conservation area and there is plenty of signage. You’ll see many birds here

This definitely is a lovely space to go for a nice walk! However parking situation most of the time can be a problem of you park at the meadowvale parking location. Overly crowded during summer. Couple of picnics spots, washrooms available. Good for all age groups. Boardwalk, trails overall good.

  • Cami H

It was a nice hike. Some parts of the trail was closed off due to construction but it's an easy trail. Also leads in credit valley trail and can go into the main roads for additional hiking. There's ample free parking but the roads leading to the parking/park are bumpy so drive slowly.

  • Darren DeSouza

Great place to watch the Fall leaves change colour and go on a hike! Also great viewing spot to cathc the Salmon run! Caught a few of the little guys trying to swim up creek when we were there!

Such a beautiful place to walk, chill out, have a picnic. The options are endless. There's culhan trail and port credit river and a beautiful bridge over the river. It's quite nice and you can come here again and again and find unexpected beauty everytime all around you.

  • Ancil Lynch

Excellent area to have a family outing. It's kept clean, but visitors are very nasty and leave garbage all over. Very, very nasty of them. At times, you could plane spot aircraft taking off from Pearson Airport. Will visit again, but try and keep clean visitors.

  • Its Muzakkir

Very nice park, calm and relaxing experience. I would recommend going on a sunny day, for more bright and scenic locales.
Playground
Very well maintained.
Picnic area
Neat and clean, great maintenance for picnic activities.

  • Naeem Baig

Really nice place to spend time with friends or family. A large amount of space and is usually not too crowded. I'd definitely think there may need to be more tables either added or separate them instead of placing all of it in a bundle.

  • Sudarshan Shetty

Had booked a covered picnic spot in area C. Had confirmed on phone that the location had electricity as well as water. Wrong info. There was neither an electrical outlet. Nor water. Huge inconvenience and a downer. Really disappointed.

  • Ultra Mario

Me and a group of people gathered together for a potluck after years of not seeing each other due to COVID, the area was big, great temperature, we went for a stroll on some of the forest trails afterwards. Overall a great experience

  • Dom S

This is a very sweet park for a picnic or BBQ with family or friends, rest with a book, play in the field and take a walk. Not too busy either.

Beautiful trail to reach a great destination. The sound of calm water flowing gives soothing effects to relax yourself. In fall it's a great place for fall colors.. you just would feel like you have entered into another world..

  • Jay Vagh

It was quite nice. The trail for walking isn't very long but it's still a quiet peaceful walk. Lots of people were BBQing and playing games, plus there is ample parking. Quite a nice place to visit if you are in Mississauga

  • corlet hazel

Beautiful location. Lots of land space to play. There is a volleyball area, also. Like at any other park, the mosquitoes become quite a nuisance as we start to lose daylight hours. I would go again, regardless.

  • Abdul Qayyum

A great open, scenic place on banks of river credit. Enjoy an evening with barbecue, some drink and a hot cup of coffee. Take a walk along walking trails and it’s short drive from all regions of Mississauga

  • deepa sreekumar

If you like to see some hawks and have a picnic it is nice. It is nice for a walk as well... My expectations was on a higher side due to the pictures and that is the only reason for a lower star.

  • Dennis Correya

Beautifully maintained, a paradise for bird watchers, joggers, bikers and folks who just want to trail walk. A bit crowded during weekends.

A very good and peaceful place to have picnics and have good memorable strolls. The trails are picturous and welcoming. It feels really close to nature visiting such places.

  • X L

A small part of the trails are not maintained (water, mud…) and my partner’s hand got scraped when hopping over a muddy creek Overall, it’s a quiet and easy-walking place

  • Mariam Sutarwala

Wish there was more to it. The space is nice but you see a lot of little plastic litter in the grass everywhere. The bathrooms are so stinky and dirty and gross (vomit).

  • Sanghamitra Bhattacharjee

Lovely place. Good place for enjoining with family or you are alone. In winter it's closed, but you can go for walking, you will definitely enjoy the beauty of silence.

  • Jagdeep Jassi

A little known park just minutes away from a plaza. There is lots of trails and bridges through this path. There are benches and plenty of green space to lounge upon

Here’s the quote for today: The true object of all human life is play. Earth is a task garden; heaven is a playground. Best place for families, couples and children.
