Gatineau Park is an amazing place to explore at any age. We select the simple trail this time, which should be interesting for kids and parents. If we'll be lucky, we'll have a chance to see some interesting birds, salamanders, and frogs near the trail.
This is a guided hike to explore Gatineau Park in the evening time for those who are interested to know more about dwellers of the forests and wetlands, tiny creatures, that just recently woke up after winter hibernation, and nocturnal bird species.
We’ll explore the area near Ottawa River and around Mud Lake to enjoy the blooming season of first Trout Lilies and other spring flowers, we’ll walk around the lake that to observe amphibians, reptiles, birds, and mammals, inhabiting the urban area in spring or just passing this area on their way to summer breeding places in the tundra and boreal forests of Canada.
We invite nature enthusiasts to join us to explore several natural areas around Almonte. We hope to visit several types of habitats, including forest, agricultural and open ecosystems.
If you are interested to know more about plants and animals in spring, join our hike on Sunday, May 14 at 9 am. We meet at the Parking on Dolman Ridge Rd. of Ottawa Greenbelt.
We are planning a trip to one of the most interesting places in the Ottawa River Valley. This place is called a Geoheritage Trail Walk (where you can see not only geological but also fossil artifacts of the Ordovician period). We will start our hike at the Bonnechere Museum, in the town of Eganville, where we'll have a chance to know about the geological history of Ottawa Valley. During our walk along the Geoheritage Trail, we'll pay attention not only to geology and fossils but also to the environment: birds, insects, and plants in the area.
