YYC Nature and Education Centre

Address: 1381 Hastings Crescent SE, Calgary, AB T2G 4C8, Canada

“My son spent a few days here doing camps over spring break and he absolutely loved it!!! He's a very anxious kiddo and this is literally the only camp he's ever been to that he didn't cry at drop-off and couldn't wait to go back. He got to see, learn about and interact with so many cool animals! He usually never tells me anything about his days at school, but he spent the entire drive home from this camp everyday telling me all of the interesting facts he learned. If your kid is an animal lover, I can't recommend these camps enough. They really are something special!”

“This is the place to be should you want to learn about the history of the Canadian Armed Forces and their courage during the past wars. This museum will remind you of the sacrifices of our heroes past and help you appreciate how far we've come and the cost those heroes had to pay for peace. It was a great experience and we hope to visit again. The tour guide at the Cold War Area was very knowledgeable and gave us a good history of how the Cold War happened.”
