Description

This is a monetized hike with the proceeds going towards the Dufferin Bruce Trail Club - "Preserving a ribbon of wilderness for everyone, forever." Your badge depicting the yellow lady slipper,  the hike logistics, shared shuttle driving and hike guidance are all included in your fee.

Please read all details for this hike to ensure it is suitable for you. The pace and terrain are particularly important details.

You must be registered to participate in this group hike. You cannot just show up as there are often people on the waitlist.

This is a multi-day hike - Mar 21 and 22, 2026. We will hike from Mono Center to Lavender in 2 days. Please understand that there is no way to predict the weather conditions. There are many hills in this section of trail and it could still be snow covered making for some difficult hiking. Please know your limit before signing up for this hike. There are no drop outs as this section of trail is often remote; there is no provision to get you back to your car.

Please ensure your car is car shuttle-ready with at least 4 available seatbelts including the driver's. We will take turns either being the shuttle driver or driving the drivers back to their cars after the hike is over.

Please pack whatever food you will require for a long day hike including lunch and snacks; 2l of water minimum; first aid kit; poles if you use them; and icers. Check the weather and dress accordingly. You may also wish to pack extra socks and rain gear. Remember to dress in layers. Gloves/mitts, scarf / neck gator, a toque and a puffy jacket. Consider snow shoes, depending on conditions.

We will break for a morning clothing adjustment, a 10min break around 10am, 15 min lunch and an afternoon break. Bio-breaks are as you need them - please let the sweep know who will wait for you. This is a 2 day group hike so it is important you keep pace with the person in front of you. We will help each other and wait for one another but please consider your physical ability before signing up for this hike.

The Dufferin stained-glass badge will be presented on the 2nd day. Since it is a group hike, it is intended that everyone who registers be present on both days.

If this two day hike has to be postponed due to inclement weather, all hikers will be notified.

Any questions may be directed through contact on this form.
If you cannot make it, please remove yourself from registration to allow another person who may be on the waitlist to join the hike.
