Niagara Glen Nature Center

Explore the beauty of the niagara region

Sunday, August 29, 2021

ActiveDays  invites you to come out and explore the incredible gorge that connects Lake Erie to Lake Ontario!

The Niagara Glen is within the Niagara Gorge and is an area with some of the best examples of the remaining original Carolinian forest of Ontario. This nature preserves contains the gorge, forests, and unique geological formations created by glaciers thousands of years ago! Along the way, we will encounter the water from Lake Erie flowing vigorously from the famous Niagara Falls and towards Lake Ontario.

This is a trip not to be missed. Come out and make new friends, visit new places and see how the outdoors is closer to the city than you may think!

WHAT TO EXPECT WITH ACTIVEDAYS

To us, facilitating this event is about creating an environment that you can engage with in your own way. This is your experience and everyone has their own relationship with the outdoors and their bodies. We want to meet you where you are at — you can take part in the hike, or wander off on your own adventure.

ActiveDays is also a community. This is an inclusive space to meet new people, share stories and have fun! To us, there is no better place to get to know someone than the outdoors. We all share a desire to get out, explore and move.

All ActiveDays participants are required to sign a waiver. We will bring printed copies of the waiver to sign on the bus. We will also share our digital waiver in the pre-trip departure email
