About this event

  • Event lasts 1 hour 30 minutes

When the sun sets, High Park becomes quieter, and many of our dusk and nighttime wildlife neighbors emerge to begin their day. Often, these creatures remain hidden during the busy daylight hours. While the darkness may make it harder to spot wildlife, we might catch a glimpse of an Eastern coyote strolling along a trail, a fox listening for a mouse, a rabbit grazing on the grass, or hear the trilling call of an Eastern screech owl. In the dark, it is just as important to listen as it is to look.

Meeting Point: In front of the High park Nature Centre

We will ensure everyone has a buddy to walk with at the end of the walk.

If this walk is full feel free to show up. We appreciate letting us know if you need to cancel. If you are late and need to find us please call our Hotline at 647-491-4057.
