Leasing

  • Hunting is only permitted for lease holders and their guests from September 1ˢᵗ to December 31ˢᵗ (inclusive). The lease holder's have exclusive hunt privileges on a three-year term basis.
  • Once this three-year term expires, current lease holders are given first right of refusal, followed by adjacent property owners. Once this process has been exhausted, we turn to our waitlist.
  • If you would like to be added to our waitlist, please email your full name, phone number, and email address to info@quinteconservation.ca.

Hikers

  • Be aware of hunting season in the area. Quinte Conservation recommends you wear high visibility attire on your head and chest for the safety of all property users.
  • Please see the Outdoor Spaces page for maintained Conservation Areas where hunting is not permitted.

Hunters

  • You will be sharing public lands with other hunters, as well as hikers.
  • A firearm must never be discharged unless the user is positive of the target and the surroundings make it safe to do so.
  • Hunting is not permitted at any conservation area and is strictly monitored.
