Currie Mountain

This property, located in Douglas, was deeded to the University on September 17, 1964 by Prof. Earle Turner. It consists of 2 separate parcels of land, with the largest being located on the north side of route 105 and the remaining two parcels situated on the south side of the road adjacent to the Saint John River. The two parcels total 13 hectares.

The mountain has an elevation of 85 metres. The area is of geological interest because of its volcanic origin, and has brown forest soils which rarely occur. It is home to a number of unique and rare plants.

Currie Mountain is used for geology and forestry field trips as well as for hiking and mountain biking by the public.
