Terrain: Hilly, Level 2 (Intermediate – some hills and uneven surfaces, rocks and roots underfoot), Level 3 (Advanced – steep hills and some scrambling over boulders)
Distance (km): 10 km Description
This hike is part of our Rainbow Hike program🌈, which aims to foster connection, visibility, and community among 2SLGBTQIA+ hikers and allies. We’ll be joined by Doug O’Neill, who leads Rainbow Hikes with the Iroquoia Bruce Trail Club, and Lana Hubbard, a transgender hike leader with the Caledon Bruce Trail Club. After everyone checks in with me at the meeting location we’ll do a 10 km out-and-back hike of the main trail through beautiful Hockley Valley Provincial Nature Reserve. Our route will follow a very hilly part of the Bruce Trail, but don’t worry — we’ll summit the hills slowly and take lots of breaks along the way, so any fit Rainbow Hiker is welcome to join us. Everyone who participates in this hike will receive a FREE Bruce Trail Pride Badge! Please bring at least 2 litres of water, your lunch, and enough snacks for a 4-hour hike. You should wear comfortable hiking shoes and socks, a hat, a breathable shirt, and lightweight long pants (to minimize the risk of a tick bite). If rain is in the forecast then a rain jacket would also be a great idea. Sunblock and bug repellent are also useful if it’s a sunny and buggy day. After the hike, anyone who is interested in joining me for a refreshing mocktail at nearby Hockley Valley Resort (https://hockley.com/eat/) is more than welcome to do so. Looking forward to hiking with you on July 18th! And feel free to share this page/link with your 2SLGBTQIA+ friends and family.
