This guided tour is for those who like to explore new places. We'll meet in the center of Ottawa near Dow's Lake at 8:30 am and we'll go together to the Gatineau area from there. In Gatineau, we'll visit several areas near Val-des-Bois, including the area adjacent to several lakes and a small waterfall.
We invite you to explore nature in early fall at the Dumoine River, the last wild river in Ottawa Valley. September is the time when it is still warm and sunny during the day; however, it is already cold at night, and in the morning a milky impenetrable fog covers all the surroundings.
Would you like to learn about the life of this swamp and walk along the paths with us to see how local plant and animal species prepare for winter? Join our hike on Sunday, October 23 at 9 am. We meet at Parking 22 of Ottawa Greenbelt, in the proximity of a boardwalk around the Mer Bleue Bog to see the rich fall colors.
