Itinerary:

Mantracker move over, we're saddling up for a trail ride.

We will be riding at Wildwood Manor Ranch, which is just 1 hour outside of Toronto, near Georgetown. Wildwood Manor caters to riders of all ability levels –- so even if you have never ridden a horse before, they will give you the right horse and enough instructions so that you can have a safe and fun ride. Alternatively, if you are a more experienced rider, you can enjoy one of the more "spirited" horses, so that you can also have a good challenge during our trip.

For this day's adventure, we'll arrive around 10:30am and sign in for our 11am trail group ride. We will go on a 1-hour guided horseback ride on the trails, led by qualified guides from Wildwood.

After the ride, we'll take a break for lunch, and then we'll go on a 2 hour D3 group hike. We will carry on the Mantracker theme and see if you can track the hike leader down the trail. Once our hike is done, we'll begin our journey home.
