Red Deer's year-round home for natural history and environmental education. Exhibits, demonstrations, events, programs, and Alberta's first nature playground, the Nova Chemicals Imagination Grove, ensure something for everyone. Since 1924, the Sanctuary has been protected as a federal migratory bird sanctuary. 5 km of trails, a bird blind, and viewing decks lead you to a variety of habitats.
