Seaton Hiking Trail is one of the best natural hiking trail close to the Greater Toronto Area. Its main trail winds along the West Duffins Creek for about 12.9km from Concession Road 3 in the South to Highway 7 in the North.

We'll walk a 5km section of Seaton Hiking Trail at a medium pace around 3.5 to 4km/hr.

We start from the Seaton Hiking Trail Parking near White Road North to Whitevale Road (North) or Concession Road 3 (South) - I will flip a coin to make it more interesting. The total distance for this in-out hike will be around 10km either path. Some parts will be challenging because of hills and mud due to recent rain.
