“Join Park Naturalists for a leisurely, 1 1/2 - 2 hour walk exploring and learning about the Park environment. Some of these walks centre around a common theme, such as birds, wildflowers or mushrooms, while others concentrate on more general topics such as forest ecology or animal signs. Conducted walks are held twice daily from late June to Labour Day weekend (early September).”
