I am new to linux environments. I have a linux server on which I have installed python3 in some virtual environment (but I no longer remember the name of the virtual environment). I know that if I were using anaconda on a windows computer, I would do the following to get the virtual environment names.

conda info --envs

The question is how do I get the list of all the virtual environments on my linux server and the path to those environments? In particular, I want a link to the bin folder containing my python3 so that I can activate my virtual environment.

Assuming you have created the virtual environments with the python pip install virtualenv command, run the command 

$locate activate

It will list down all the folders having 'activate' in it. Among those you can find the virtual environment folders you created. Remember, the virtual env folders are of this form your_env_name/bin/activate under the parent folder where it was created.
