Join forest educator, Virginia De Carle on guided hikes in Bancroft’s beautiful Eagles Nest Park. This popular program is suitable for all ages, including families with children.
Hear about the local forest industry and its impact on the region. Learn how to identify different tree species by feeling the bark, examining the leaves, and looking at the canopy.
The forests on Eagles Nest are home to a variety of flora and fauna. Virginia will help you see what you may have first overlooked. What evidence is there on the forest floor or in the trees that indicate the creatures that make this forest their home?
There are a few different ecosystems in the park, on her tours, Virginia will help you understand what they are and their importance to the plants, trees and wildlife who live there.
Virginia developed this Nature Connects and Forest Education program with her vast experience facilitating programs at Eagles Nest and in Algonquin Park and other parts of the region.
