In the wild or out your window, the creatures of the Mighty Peace Region are never far from view
Newcomers to the Mighty Peace Region are often amazed to see deer, bears, and other animals wandering through their garden—or down Main Street. When you live surrounded by wilderness, it’s nice to meet the neighbours. Throughout the year, but especially during our long summer days, birders and other wildlife watchers will have plenty to keep an eye on.
The Maples in the Municipal District of Fairview No. 136 is an ideal spot to host picnics, family gatherings, or be a pit stop for those who want to hike, bike, or play on the playground.
This gorgeous day use area is situated right next to the Peace River and holds great history. Originally an Anglican Mission stood in this area in the 1880’s. Offering a covered picnic area, you will be able to enjoy as many hours as you’d like here. Surrounded by large trees and green grass, this tranquil spot will have you coming back for more visits year after year.
