NBTC SUMMER NATURE HIKEJoin us for the NBTC Nature Hike series to learn more about the biodiversity along the Niagara Escarpment. We will explore the trails throughout Louth Conservation Area which offer beauty in all four seasons. Hikes will be held January, May, August & October – it will be amazing to see all the changes throughout the seasons. Your hike leaders, members of the NBTC Biodiversity Committee, will share their knowledge of the amazing flora & fauna along the trail as well as any biodiversity projects in the works for this year.
Parking is at the Louth Conservation Area Parking Lot on Staff Ave. Hiking boots and poles are recommend as the terrain is very rocky in sections.
Note that the hike will be rescheduled in the event of heavy rains or heavy snow. This hike was rescheduled from August so lets hope for good weather!
