The two Lord of the Rings walks begin at 11:00am & 1:00pm and are 1.5 hours long. There is an additional non-themed walk from 12:00pm to 1:00pm. During the guided walks you will learn about the native and invasive species in Burnaby. The walks use the iNaturalist App to assist you in photographing and identifying the wide range of plants, fungi, and wildlife.
