    Pace: Leisurely – 3 km/hr. or less
    Terrain: Moderate – Some hills and/or some poor footing
    Distance: 6 km

    Description

    We will park the most easterly end of the 6th Sideroad. Hike with me on the Path of the Petun and learn about a great battle that was fought between the Iroquois and the Petun at the Petun Village of Etharita, also known as the “St. Jean”. As we hike along the escarpment ridge, we will use our imaginations to see the Battle Ground and what this beautiful area was like in the mid 1600’s. We will then take the Russ McConnell Sidetrail back to our cars.
