Flora and Fauna Nature Walk

This is the perfect tour if you are looking to go on an easy hike, learn about flora & fauna, and see a lovely waterfall. You will experience the incredible diversity of vegetation in a mixed boreal and coastal rainforest. Species like giant spruce, paper birch, and aspens reign from above while alders, willows, and devil’s club dominate the understory. Lichens, fungi, berries, and mosses are waiting to be explored, and we will teach you all about them.
