Geocache Description:

This has been a favorite location for my running club over the past few years. While out this weekend running I decided to hide a cache here. The park is located in a small town called Lowville. A peaceful winding river runs through the park as you'll discover while looking for this cache.

A bit of history

The Nelson Telephone Company established its head office in Lowville in 1907 and, in 1919, rural mail began. In 1958 Burlington annexed Nelson Township and inherited Lowville Park, which Nelson Reeve William Robertson and a group of men had purchased in 1945. This community park, created by local farmers, is extremely popular for day campers and picnickers and is the site of Burlington’s annual Winter Carnival.

The Region of Halton proposed a plan in 1986 for the reconstruction of Guelph Line. Thanks to the input of the Lowville Area Residents Association and the Burlington LACAC, the physical and historical heritage of Lowville was preserved for the residents of this area who cherish the same experience of living life immersed in the unique, natural beauty of the Niagara Escarpment as did the first settlers, who pursued the promise of a new life in a new land.

Enjoy
