Scout Island Nature Centre

This is such a neat spot for a walk. You are right in the city, and feel far away. The new board walks and gravol have been a wonderful upgrade, and there are so many animals in the area. We saw Swans, Ducks, Martin, Deer, and a Hawk. The walk takes you around the edge of the island, with trails that cut through if you want a shorter/longer time. Many view points with benches, and a spot for summer swimming or a picnic.

Went there to find a book that is out of print at the open book and the person there was able to find it for me, exactly the info I’ve been looking for thanks so much! Worth the read for sure.

Quite active but not crowded, the nature centre was on a small island in William’s Lake, BC. It has a small beach where people swim and sunbathe but is an attraction for it’s birds and turtles. Well worth visit. Free to visit!

Love it. Always peaceful and beautiful. Nice people on the trails, great conversation if wanted, or simply a peaceful stroll can always be had. Lots of beautiful places for viewing and photos. Picnick benches for lunch. Nice little beach for the kids and a generally well taken care of boat launch.

A peaceful quiet beautiful place to sit down and watch lots of wild birds over the Williams Lake.

The place is great to get away for a small walk and just to eat your food at. They have a beach, walking trails, bird viewing look outs, bridges, and more!

Beautiful trails, wheelchair friendly. Lots of interesting creatures living there. Knowledgeable staff.
