Join one of our two guides, Josh and Nathan, for a forest tour at New Jubilee Forest - only 30 minutes from downtown Edmonton. Each guide offers their own unique introduction to the forest and her inhabitants.

This will be a slow walk on wide dirt trails in the forest with some moderately steep slopes.  Please come prepared for the weather, with appropriate footwear, sunscreen, insect repellant, water, snacks, and whatever you need to feel comfortable in the forest.  Outhouses are available on site!  We will walk rain or shine, only cancelling for extreme weather, or if fewer than 3 people register.  If we cancel, you have the choice of rolling your tickets forward to the next tour, or receiving a refund.  If you need to cancel, we require 24 hours notice in order to offer you a refund.


New Jubilee Forest is in an oxbow of the river in the sparsely developed Horse Hills District.  It is not accessible by bus or bicycle (unless you are willing to cycle some distance on gravel roads).  Please let us know if you need a ride to the site, and we will arrange a carpool.


To get there by car, travel north on Manning Drive, and turn right just before the temple, then immediately left onto a road that parallels Manning for a short distance, then curves east to become 195ave.  Continue straight, across a set of railroad tracks, then turn left onto 33st. NE a the end of a long row of trees.  Traveling north on 33st. NE, turn right into the driveway with the sign that says "Fern's Flowers" (immediately after a sign that says "Norbest Farms").  Park on the left (North) side of the driveway after turning in and before going down the hill.  At the bottom of the hill is parking for Fern's Flower Gardens.  Call 587-337-4189 (Nathan's cell), if you lose your way or need directions.
