You must pay to park at Quinte Conservation's areas. Parking fees support the maintenance and management of Quinte Conservation Areas by keeping trails open, safe, and accessible. Parking fees contribute to the repair and replacement of structures like boardwalks, bridges, and benches, and to upgrades like ease-of-access trails, new trails, educational signage and safety features.
Some repairs/projects can be very costly and it takes time to raise funds to support them. Collecting parking fees is only one of the many avenues we take to support these areas. Donations, fundraisers, and successful grant applications also support large-scale projects.
