Canada’s biggest nature challenge is back! The CWF Great Canadian BioBlitz returns for a second year - September 18–27, 2026, and we’re inviting nature lovers, community scientists, educators, and biodiversity enthusiasts across the country to help document as much Canadian wildlife as possible, from backyard birds to rare plants and everything in between.

The Great Canadian BioBlitz is more than just a fun challenge—it's a way to connect with nature, contribute to conservation science, and celebrate the amazing biodiversity of this country. Let’s make this the biggest and most inclusive BioBlitz yet!

Help us track biodiversity in London by participating in the Great Canadian BioBlitz and joining us on one of our many hikes! Can't wait to see you out on the trail!
