Welcome

Welcome to the Altona Forest blog site. The Altona Forest is situated in the City of Pickering just east of Toronto in Ontario, Canada. The Forest is approximately 53 hectares (102 acres). In 1982, the forest was designated an environmentally significant area due to its ecological and historical importance. The forest is a very special place given its placement within an urban center.
