Nature Trail
Summer
activities are in full swing.
The Nature Park has been fully prepared
for visitors. The trails have been trimmed, the signage and story boards
have been put in place, and you can now have a comfortable hike while
learning about Newfoundland and Labrador's native flora and fauna.
At the beginning of the trail, pick up an
interpretative booklet. (Put it back when you're finished). The booklet
will identify all the native plant species you'll find on the hike. The
plants, wildflowers, fauna, are numbered. Just look up the corresponding
number in your booklet for full identification. Many of the species are
identified on the spot with story boards.
There are guides present who can
accompany you if you'd rather not go alone. The student nature
interpreters have spent many hours bringing the trails up to spec for
your visit.
The identification, booklets, signage,
etc., are the product of an immense amount of work by volunteers, but
particularly by Henry Mann, the force behind the project.
So, if you're looking for a great, easy
hike on a summer's day or evening, come along to our Nature Park. You'll
enjoy the hike and you'll find answers to all the questions you usually
ask on such a walk. "I wonder what that is?" Just check your
booklet for the answer.
PS - Bring your insect repellant.
It's a bad year for bugs.
