Have you heard about the Talking Forest App?

Trail exploration just got a serious upgrade. Whether you’re wandering a park in the watershed of Kawartha Conservation or Hamilton Conservation Authority, this app turns a walk in the woods into an interactive narrative told by the trees themselves. Using built-in GPS, the Talking Forest App automatically triggers audio stories, images and captions as you move through the trails. From local wildlife and ecology to regional history and geology, every step becomes a chance to learn and connect. This experience is possible thanks to a partnership between Kawartha Conservation, Hamilton Conservation Authority and educational technology & innovation company, Ampere.
