Wednesday Noon Walks:
Nature is known to be unpredictable and unexpected, so what awaits us today? Christa, The Arboretum's Naturalist Intern, will be leading 1 hour long walks every Wednesday. Walks start at The Hales McKay Bus Shelter, beside the main parking lot for the Arboretum Centre, at 12:15pm, every Wednesday.
For more information contact Christa at wisec@uoguelph.ca or ext. 53615.
Please note that the hike may be cancelled if there is inclement weather. Cancellations are posted on our social media pages.
We kindly ask that walk participants follow the current University Covid protocols [1].
Virtual Walks:
In the past, when we were unable to run in-person walks, we offered walks in a virtual format. Our Wednesday Walk videos can be found below, or go on our YouTube channel [2] to check them all out.
