Come Visit Us!
Many of the properties owned and managed by the Nature Conservancy of Canada (NCC) welcome visitors. These areas provide excellent hiking, birdwatching, nature photography and other compatible recreation opportunities.
This year, be sure to take time for nature, wherever you are. And if you happen to be near an NCC site in the four Atlantic provinces, we encourage you to drop by and see exactly what we're able to accomplish, thanks to the generous support of our donors.
So come on by!

Allowable activities on Nature Conservancy of Canada properties
Allowable activities on Nature Conservancy of Canada properties are defined by each property's management plan. There is no one-size-fits-all approach to what kinds of recreation visitors can engage in on our conservation lands.
Some properties remain completely closed to the public in order to protect the sensitive ecology that made the land so important to conserve.
Other conservation areas can withstand a wide range of recreational pursuits without any harm coming to the natural habitat.
If you have questions about what activities are permissible on any of our properties, please contact us at atlantic@natureconservancy.ca or call us toll-free at 1-877-231-4400.
