The Elora Gorge is a popular tourist attraction located at the western edge of Elora, Ontario, Canada, which is 25 km from the city of Guelph through highway 6. As the Elora Gorge Conservation Area, it is one of many conservation areas maintained by the Grand River Conservation Authority. ==About== The Grand River flows through the bottom of the gorge, approximately long, with limestone cliffs reaching high.〔(【引用サイトリンク】publisher=Grand River Conservation Authority )〕 It was formed from glacial meltwaters from the previous ice age. The area includes a park with camping sites, hiking trails, and is also popular for kayaking and tubing. Located near by is the "old swimming hole", at the Elora Quarry Conservation Area, a 0.8 hectare (two acre) former limestone quarry encircled by sheer cliffs up to high. Elora Quarry did not become a conservation area until 1976, but it was a popular swimming area long before that. Popular activities at the site include: camping, canoeing, fishing, hiking, cycling, swimming, picnicking, and tubing. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Elora Gorge」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
