This time we'll go the right way!!!

This is a long hike, but mainly flat which will be a great warm up to the 26K hike in November. As usual we'll attempt to follow the hike as described on the Toronto Hiking website as it does give us a good plan to start with. Those who have been on one of my hikes will know that we can end up blazing our own trails !

The hike is close to Silver Creek area and incorporates part of the Bruce Trail and Caledon Trailway. The vegetation is lush and the terrain varies greatly, from meadow, to forest, to bog and will make a beautiful hike for late fall.
