We’ll stop regularly to listen to birds and admire spring flowers. Bring binoculars, camera and cell phone. Cell phone apps like Merlin, Seek and iNaturalist can help in identification of flora and fauna along the route. - 23May 23, 2025No events

Location (Google Maps): Meet at the BTC parking area (20 cars) northeast of km 8.9 in the Dufferin section off of 2nd Line EHS at the beginning of the Splitrock Side Trail. The lot is north of 25 Sideroad. This hike is just north of Mono Cliffs Provincial Park. It is best to aim for arriving around 8:15, so we can start hiking as close to 8:30 am as possible.

Let’s rock it out and explore the geology of Splitrock Narrows. We’ll hike at a leisurely pace over the approximately 4 km route as we look at Splitrock Narrows in a whole new way. Dr. Kathy Wallace will provide an introductory-level look at the geology of the area that welcomes your curiosity. Plan on a total time out less than two hours, a short snack/water break, and having your way of engaging with the trail expanded. You may wish to consider the following in your preparation: hat, sunscreen, insect repellent, poles, water, snack, rain gear. This interactive hike was created for a small group. No dogs please.
