Off to enjoy a nature-filled EcoWalk
Discover the wildside of Stanley Park in this two-hour guided walk. Our skilled interpreters will take you deeper into the natural world. Explore how animals and plants change with the cycles of nature and how contemporary topics such as climate change, endangered and invasive species and biodiversity loss impact our daily lives.
Walks take place every Sunday at 1:00 pm, rain or shine.
EcoWalks now depart from the the now-open Lost Lagoon Nature House on the southeast shore of Lost Lagoon.
Cost: $10 public, $5 under 18 and members
