School classes or community groups interested in special tours should write to miserybay@xplornet.com to make arrangements. Special group tours can be available from late May through early October, depending on availability of guides for hikes.

In 2010, the Visitors Centre will be staffed and open on Saturdays, Sundays, and holidays
from 10:00 AM to 5:00 PM, May 22 through October 10,
