Pace: Moderate

Distance: 16 kmDescription
Difficulty: IntermediateJoin me for the first of seven hikes to complete the entire Beaver Valley Section in 2020. We’ll do three in the spring and four in the fall to avoid the heat. Today we’ll be walking 16 km from near Ravenna to Swiss Meadows. I plan to break the group into two, with a faster group going ahead and a more moderate main body following. We’ll do the same route and finish at the same place.
We will do a refreshment stop at Primrose on the way back to Toronto.
