This has a short shuttle. We will drive from Collingwood to Lions Head (2 hours) and follow Cty. Rd. 9 to km 67.9 at the junction of the Barrow Bay Side Trail which has now become the white blazed trail after printing Edition 31. We follow this NEW trail to a very steep descent down the Escarpment to the Georgian Bay shore. We then follow a moderately rugged path just inside the tree line for 2km along an unspoiled rocky shoreline. We then head back up via a steep zig zag among huge boulders until we meet a formerly impassable cliff, now conquered by a spectacular wooden staircase built in 2020 by volunteers from the Peninsula BTC. We will take a moment to appreciate the hard work and beautiful views before continuing on an easy peasy walk to our end point. The trail features cliffs, spectacular lookouts, and dense forests. A long drive home but what a spectacular new section of our fabulous footpath to have experienced. Bring snacks, lunch and water. Available parking: S Shore Rd. - 08June 8, 2024
