Amazing Places Adventure Lab
Some places invite you to slow down, look out, and notice more.
From this vantage point on Notch Hill, you can see how forest, wetland, water and mountain are all connected and how the Mount Arrowsmith Biosphere Region is part of a much larger living journey.
Each year, migratory birds move through this region, relying on a network of shorelines, forests, wetlands and waterways along their journeys. From up here, it’s a little easier to imagine how all those places connect.
Who is here today?
Who might only be passing through?
The Amazing Places Adventure Lab is a fun way to explore special places across the Biosphere Region while learning more about the landscapes, wildlife and stories that make this region unique.
Whether you come for the view, the walk, the geocaching adventure, or the chance to notice birds moving through the seasons, every stop is an invitation to discover a little more.
