Description
Today we will hike from the Centre Rd Parking area on the main trail to the Mulmur Lookout . We will take a short break here to admire the valley then return on the main trail to 1st Line where we will pick up the Boyne Valley Side Trail southbound on 1st Line. The side trail eventually heads into the woods and back to the main trail . From this junction we will hike north bound on the main trail with an opportunity to cross the Boyne River before climbing out of the valley. We will take a break at the top of Murphy's Pinnacle to enjoy lunch and the view before heading back to the parking area.
Please be prepared for the weather, we will hike rain or shine. Ensure you have enough water,lunch and snacks, sunscreen and bug repellent. Hats and sunglasses are recommended as are poles and sturdy shoes.
