Nature Adventure Days: Ice & Snow - Human Powered Adventures

  • Wild Bear Nature Center 20 Lakeview Drive Nederland, CO, 80466 United States (map)

ABOUT

Let’s head out into the snow on the snowshoes to enjoy the winterscapes, in the morning and takes some turns around the ice skating rink in the afternoon. We’ll focus on how traveling on ice differs from on snow, and why are the two so different when they’re both made of frozen water. We’ll learn about how to be a positive part of the winter ecosystem we’ll explore.

ABOUT NATURE ADVENTURE DAYS

TURN A DAY OFF INTO A DAY OUT!

During days off from school, there is nothing better than hitting the local trails to continue the fun and learning in the great outdoors with Wild Bear! Wild Bear offers several specialty outdoor education programs throughout the year when schools have holidays and breaks.

At Wild Bear, children enjoy a full day of outdoor studies at Mud Lake and the surrounding areas of Nederland. Wild Bear incorporates science, ecology, arts, writing, survival skills, and more into our programming to inspire a love of nature and encourage children’s natural curiosity.

Each full day program and age group will focus on a specific theme and align with their grade level studies. Wild Bear brings the learning of all subjects into the outdoors of our beautiful Nederland area!
