Our Facilities
Less then an hour's drive of metropolitan Halifax, the Natural Resources Education Center is nestled in the beautiful Musquodoboit Valley. Our outdoor programs foster a sense of stewardship and sustainable development of our natural resources. NREC is the first educational facility of its kind in Atlantic Canada. We offer the following:
Many curriculum-based programs for school and community groups. As well, a number of special events are held throughout the year. The 80 hectare woodland provides opportunities for field tours, exhibits and demonstrations. Self-guided interpretive trails can be used for snowshoeing, cross-country skiing or nature hikes. One of the wood-chip trails is seasonally wheelchair accessible; please give us advance notice if one of your students has a wheelchair. |
