About Darlington Provincial Park

Darlington Provincial Park is a part of the Ontario Provincial Parks system. It is located just south of Highway 401 near the town of Courtice, between the cities of Bowmanville and Oshawa. A little park, the geography is overwhelmed by delicate slopes, a terminal moraine stored by ice sheets toward the finish of the last Ice Age. The recreation center fringes on the northern shore of Lake Ontario additionally encases McLaughlin Bay. The Bay is shallow, and eventually in the 1990s was totally cut off from the lake by the activity of the waves.

The property flanking the recreation center toward the west is the home of General Motors Corporation's Canadian central command. Kintigh Generating Station can be seen from this common stop despite the fact that it is on the opposite side of the lake in Somerset, New York. Darlington Provincial Park is home to a few assortments of plants and creatures. The verdure of the recreation center comprises for the most part of second-age regrowth, as the recreation center was reforested in the 1960s subsequent to being cleared for farmland. Intrusive plant species are a difficult issue in the recreation center, particularly the forceful purple loosestrife developing in the mucky territories flanking McLaughlin Bay.
