Property Description

MapleCross-Fraserburg Nature Reserve is a 242-hectare nature reserve comprised of upland forest and various wetland ecosystems in the hamlet of Fraserburg just east of Bracebridge.

Historically a hunt camp, the MapleCross-Fraserburg Nature Reserve provides habitats for several species at risk. As part of its long-term plan, Muskoka Conservancy intends to create trails to welcome the public.

This brings the total number of Protected Areas conserved by Muskoka Conservancy to 62. Muskoka Conservancy now protects lands totaling more than 2,630 hectares, with 26,000 metres of natural shoreline and 445 hectares of wetlands.

This project was made possible by the Government of Canada through the Natural Heritage Conservation Program, part of Canada’s Nature Fund. We are also grateful for financial support provided by The Kenneth M. Molson Foundation, MapleCross Fund, The Government of Ontario’s Greenlands Conservation Partnership Program, administered by OLTA, the Echo Foundation, and the Chisholm-Thomson Family Foundation.
