Book Description

On April 21, 2005, the Kawartha Highlands Signature Site (KHSS) officially became a park through regulation under the Provincial Parks Act. The Kawartha Highlands Signature Site Park is a "natural environment" class park, described as a park which "incorporates outstanding recreational landscapes with representative natural features and historical resources to provide high quality recreational and educational experiences." Although the Kawartha Highlands has now been regulated as a park, it is not yet operational (presently no maintained public facilities or services within the park). The park management plan (a working document intended to guide all development and management activities within a park) will provide direction for the future operation and resource management of the Kawartha Highlands. Ontario Parks is seeking comments from stakeholders, Aboriginal community members and the general public to assist in the preparation of a park management plan for the Kawartha Highlands Signature Site Park.--Document.
