Facilities

The 3.0km Beaver Boardwalk is a unique, wooden pathway that winds its way through wetlands and a living, fully functioning beaver pond in the town of Hinton, Alberta. The Boardwalk features seating areas, an outdoor classroom, interpretive signs and two observation towers. It's a great opportunity for people to experience and learn about Mother Nature up close.

The Boardwalk is yet another tribute to the cooperative spirit of our community. It was constructed by volunteers using materials and funding provided by West Fraser Mills and other partner organizations.
