Company Swan Lake Christmas Hill Nature Sanctuary
Personal Bio Array
Business Description The 160+ acres of the Swan Lake Christmas Hill Nature Sanctuary are comprised of two physically and ecologically distinct areas – a low wetland area surrounding Swan Lake, and a rare Garry oak-forested hilltop on Christmas Hill. All of the Nature Sanctuary lands are owned by the Municipality of Saanich, (except for two small Nature Trust BC parcels) and are managed by the Swan Lake Christmas Hill Nature Sanctuary Society under the terms of a Land Management Agreement between the Society and the Municipality. The area was shaped by the last glacial period and its effects are vividly illustrated on rocky hilltops like Christmas Hill and the deep marine clay beds underlying Swan Lake. We have an estimated 70,000 visitors on the grounds and 8,000 visitors to our Nature House educational centre each year.
