Nature Day Camp at FortWhyte Alive

Get your kids safely out of the house and into the woods. Now you can sign your child up for a single day experience or as many days as you like to help them embrace the outdoors.

Habitat Heroes

Ages: 5 – 7 years old

Spring has sprung and what better time to explore the many habitats at FortWhyte Alive. From the trees to the bees, we’ll be adventuring and learning as we delve into nature’s many wonders. And who needs our heroes the most, why Mother Nature of course! We’ll gain tips and tricks on fun ways that you and your family can reduce your carbon footprint.

 

Aspen Adventurers

As true adventurers, our expeditions will take us off the beaten path as we discover the secrets of the plants and animals that call FortWhyte Alive home.
