Group nature programs for adults and seniors

We offer a variety of nature programs designed for adult and seniors groups.

Explore one of Calgary's amazing parks or greenspaces! An environmental educator will guide you through your favourite natural area in the season of your choice - you pick the date and location. We will work with you to customize the program based on your group's needs and interests. Activities will include historical fun facts and plant and wildlife identification.

Length: 1 hour
Location: Any City of Calgary park or green space
Cost: $104, maximum 30 participants

Join Calgary Parks for an information session to learn how to identify common tree pests and proper pruning techniques to keep your trees healthy and thriving. The information sessions are approximately 1.5 hours long and feature a Q&A with a certified arborist who will offer advice and answer any tree-related questions or concerns. Space at each session is limited and the content at each session will be the same; please sign up for one session only.

Have you ever gone for a walk in your community or local park and wanted to know more about all of the beautiful trees you see? Join Calgary Parks for a free guided tree walk and learn some fun facts and unique characteristics about our city’s trees. You’ll find out how to identify trees in your community, learn what trees would make great additions to your own yard, hear interesting stories and more.

New this year: We are offering four historic tree guided walks where you will have the opportunity to discover Calgary’s tree history and hear the stories behind some of our historic trees. These walks are marked below with *Historic tree walk.

Walks take approximately one hour, and extra time is provided at the end to answer tree related questions.
