Interpretive Tours
We discuss forest ecology and how the management of the forest is based on our understanding of the forest. For the most part the terrain is fairly easy and the pace is slow. The duration of the walk varies depending upon the number of participants and the interests of the group. Generally expect the walk to be around 2 hours in length.
These tours are open to all.
They are by appointment (generally Saturday at 1:30 PM). Call 250-816-1816 or email jrastogi@conservancy.bc.ca
Admission is Free for TLC Members!
