Welcome!
The Tourond Creek Discovery Centre (TCDC) is an outdoor environment that is open for you to explore. Discover the diversity of plant and animal species at the centre. Search the grassy meadows for the winding path of the Tourond Creek. Enjoy a family picnic under the shelter or climb the lookout tower to view the beauty of this naturalized landscape.
Our picnic shelter can accommodate up to 60 people and our wheelchair accessible toilet facilities are clean, comfortable, and scent-free. These facilities showcase the design of two innovative toilet systems for safe sanitation. The weather station records atmospheric conditions and relays data to Environment Canada. Check out weather reports from the Kleefeld weather station by visiting www.weather.gc.ca. Catch water bugs from the stationary dock in the shallow pond. Take a walk down the trail system that connects five micro-ecosystems throughout the centre.
The TCDC is used by school groups who use the centre as an outdoor classroom to engage students in activities that encourage interactions with nature. The outdoors is the best place for children to master emerging social and physical skills, like running, leaping, and inventing games. Families and nature lovers use the centre to connect with nature as an important part of healthy living.
