Description
This is the last of our Fall series of favourite hikes. Winter will be knocking at our door as we take our morning coffee by the shore of Little Cove. Then, we will begin our hike along the Main Trail through a mostly coniferous forest. Weather permitting, we will take a short diversion to the Dolostone Arch Side Trail to view the natural land arch, before retracing our steps to join the Fairway Meadows Side Trail and closing our loop back to Little Cove. Approximately 3 hr.
Footwear with good grip is essential. Walking poles are recommended. Bring snacks and water. Dress in layers and according to the weather conditions.
Free coffee and muffins for hike participants arriving before 9:15 a.m.
