The Friends of Laurier Woods, a non-profit charitable organization, has scheduled weekly spring interpretive hikes for every Saturday throughout May. 

Starting at 9 a.m. the walks will leave from the parking lot at the end of Brule Street. The guided walks are being offered at no cost to the public.

Laurier Woods, within the heart of the City of North Bay and adjacent to Home Depot, features a 12 kilometre trail network through significant wetlands and upland forest. 

The two-hour walks, led by well-known birder, Dick Tafel, will focus on the magnificent natural features within the Woods and offer visitors the opportunity to view spring birds including warblers, thrushes, kinglets, and ducks.
