Valens Conservation area offers a natural sandy beach, 10-kilometres of trails, as well as fishing. This man-made reservoir was created around 1970 to control flooding. It is part of the Spencer Creek watershed, which starts on the Niagara Escarpment and flows into Lake Ontario at Cootes Paradise, Hamilton.
