The terrain is easy, mostly being a flat rail trail, but we'll keep a moderate pace at about 4 to 4.5km/h for the 16km hike. We will start our adventure at the 51st Annual Elmira Maple Syrup Festival, where we'll explore the local sugar bush and taste the local maple syrup poured onto pancakes. After a pancake breakfast and time to explore the festival and purchase some maple syrup, we will start our hike along Kissing Bridge Trailway, past rich Ontario farmland, ending at Ontario's last remaining covered bridge, then backtracking to the festival for lunch.

Preference may also be given to those whose TOC record suggests an inclination to pick up the pace. | |||||||
