    Terrain: Variable
    Distance: 13k

    Description

    Join us for a relaxed and scenic hike at Palgrave Forest and Wildlife Area, a 306 hectare greenspace located in Peel Region.  Palgrave is a small gem – it has a pond, meadows, enough changes of terrain to keep it interesting, pretty flowers and lots of tree cover.  We will hike all of the key trails in the park, including some Oak Ridges Moraine Trail, starting from Duffy’s lane.  The pace will be steady but not fast- around 3.5 km/hour given the temperature.  We will stop for lunch.  The plan will be to finish by 2.00 pm- 2.30 pm so that we have time to go into Bolton for a pub/refreshment stop before heading back to Toronto by 5.30 pm.  While parts of the trail are flat and broad, there are some hills, narrow/winding trails  and 1 steep ascent and descent.  Be aware that we may run into bikers.  Hiking boots are essential.  Please bring at least 2 litres of water, your lunch, a hat, sunscreen and mosquito repellant.
