Itinerary:

Note: Drivers will get preference on the waiting list. I'll increase the maximum number of participants as we get more drivers.

This will be a relatively easy hike around 3.5km/hr but those wanting to hike faster can do so but will need to wait for the group at each turn off. The start of the hike will be all uphill for about 2km with a big elevation gain but then flattens out. We’ll follow the Tews Falls lookout trail to the Tews Falls platform then continue along the train to Webster’s Falls. This is where we’ll stop for a snack/lunch break before retracing the trail back to News Falls then along the Glen Ferguson Side trail back to Dundas Driving Park.

This is Vee's 1st event as an event coordinator, please direct all questions to him.
