Visit our Field Education Centre

Set atop a hill looking out over the upper Fraser River area to the north, the Aleza Field Education Center iis immersed in the quiet of the forest, offering a true outdoor experience.  

Designed to facilitate field courses, research and other training events, the cabin is also perfect for hosting meetings, retreats, training, school field trips, and other related events.

Wildlife

Moose, Bear, Fisher, and Wolverine

We have begun wildlife monitoring at the ALRF! As part of our continuing education and research, the ALRF identified a gap in our understanding of the wildlife that call the research forest home. In the fall of 2022 we officially began monitoring for wildlife throughout the research forest. To date, this project has been very productive in capturing a variety of wildlife. We look forward to continuing this project and detecting more of the unique wildlife that reside in the ALRF.
