Fanshawe Conservation Area

Your last chance to camp with us this season is here! 🍂 Camping is open through to Sunday, October 18 which means a few nights remain for some fall overnight stays. Here are a few favorites activities you can do:

🛶 Get out on the water - our reservoir remains open!
🍔 Picnic in the park and/or cook on the fire at your site!
🚲 Hit up one of our trails including our 21 km Lake Trail (then recover at your site 😅)!
🍂 Take in the fall colours - arguably the most beautiful time of year!
🌠Spend your days exploring, then return to a crackling campfire under the starry sky!

Book your fall getaway before we close for the season. Online (link in bio) or call: 1-519-951-6181

The London Fire Department will be conducting rescue training and exams on our property from Friday, October 16 until Monday, October 19. Part of their training will be on the reservoir. Please keep your distance so as not to interfere with this important work!

Thank you for your cooperation.

Looking to relax and enjoy the outdoors more next spring and summer? Join us as a Seasonal Camper in 2027. Nestled just north of London, Ontario, Fanshawe Conservation Area offers a vibrant escape for outdoor enthusiasts, families, and anyone yearning to reconnect with the natural world. Across our 3,000 acres, there's a blend of scenic landscapes with well-managed amenities, making it a revered spot for camping, paddling, bird watching, hiking, fishing, cycling, and more.

There’s something special about the mornings here: the calls of warblers and chickadees, cool mist on the lake, sunlight sifting through tall trees. Sites offer enough space for privacy but maintain a sense of community, especially around communal fire pits or playgrounds.
