This field trip requires 15 minute travel in each direction from the Banff Centre to the field trip site*

Public Transport on Route 6 will NOT be available to visit the Ponds. 

Get your dip nets ready and join Ducks Unlimited Canada (DUC) for a guided wetland field trip. This session will provide practical knowledge and resources to help educators feel confident teaching in wetlands and in nature. DUC's experts will guide participants through outdoor games, critter dipping, and mindfulness activities to address climate anxiety. The workshop will equip educators with the skills and confidence to create engaging outdoor learning experiences that promote ecological awareness and climate change solutions.
