Nature in Motion: Monarch Migration Hike
As thousands of Monarch butterflies embark on an epic journey to Mexico, we invite you to be a part of the adventure! You will ride the shuttle down to the most southern point in hopes of witnessing the incredible spectacle of Monarchs as they gather at this final Canadian stop before heading south.
During our hike, we will share insights into their migration patterns, lifecycle, and the importance the region plays in their journey. Together, we’ll count Monarchs, contributing to valuable data to conservation efforts aimed at protecting this magnificent species. Join us in witnessing the beauty of nature in motion!
Additional Information:
• Bilingual hikes will be offered on Saturdays and Sundays.
• Hike portion distance is 1 km
• We suggest you bring a pair of pants and closed toed shoes in case it’s a bad fly day – it’s the best defense again a bite!
• The last shuttle will depart the tip just after sunset.
• We cannot guarantee that visitors will see Monarchs during this hike – but we hope they do!
