Allan Brooks Nature Centre

This hilltop interpretive centre is an excellent stop to broaden your understanding of the ecology of the region. Open seasonally from April to October, the facility hosts a number of interactive exhibits and naturalist presentations to educate and inspire. Offering 360-degree views of the region, with a vantage point over grasslands and ponds, the centre is also an excellent location for bird watching. On a sunny fall day, it is not uncommon to see a number of raptors migrating through the area, while in the spring their nest boxes are host to western and mountain bluebirds, and tree swallows. The vegetation around the small pond attracts songbirds, while the grasslands host a number of familiar species.
