For the health and well-being of our volunteers and members of the public, and to limit the spread of Coronavirus (COVID19), we have closed our site facilities (Nature House, Greeter Hut, Coast Salish Plant Nursery) and suspending all public programs (including nature walks) until further notice. Some of our events are being offered online, where appropriate. See our Eventbrite page to see a full list of our virtual events. bit.ly/WBTeventbrite
We also wanted to update you and share that our trails remain open. The parking lot is now open on weekends as well. Enjoy them at your own risk, while practising social distancing (1-2 metres to other people) and not assembling in groups.
While we are spending more time at home we welcome you to browse our website, and enjoy our curated selection of birding and conservation images on our Instagram, Facebook and Twitter feeds. Please share your own images with our community online and tag them @maplewoodflats.
For updates or more information, contact Executive Director, Lianne Payne, at ed@wildbirdtrust.org

How long are the trails?
Hi Joel. Great question! Not sure what the exact distance is, but it takes about an hour or two to walk our entire trail system (depending on your speed). You can learn more about the Conservation Area on this page: https://wildbirdtrust.org/visit/conservation-area-information/ which has a map and information for a self-guided tour. Hope this helps!
Can one find frogs to watch in this area.

Hi Jean,
Yes we do have frogs at the Conservation Area. You can definitely hear them throughout the Conservation Area. Seeing them might be a bit harder, but with a bit of searching (especially near the West Pond area), you should be able to find some frogs. Hope this helps!
