Itinerary:

This hike will be a 12.5-13k loop on the main Bruce Trail, incorporating the Speyside, Vanderleck, and Hilton Falls Side Trails. We will pass by look outs off the escarpment to the Scotch Block Reservoir below. This will be a medium paced hike (about 4km/hr), but it will be going at roughly the pace of the slowest hiker.

Please be prepared for the weather with layers and pack rain gear if necessary. Water and lunch are also to be packed, along with an appreciation for the outdoors.

Note that this event is on a Sunday and you may not be able to reach the carpool location by subway on time. Please refer to the TTC website for trip planning if you are coming to the carpool by transit.
