Join me for a scenic and easy paced walk, a regular summer favorite led by Wayne Crockett, along the trails running through Norfolk County ending at historic Port Dover. The route is primarily on rail trails so is ideal for those who favor a flatter and easier route in the summer heat. Dropout at 8km. After the walk there will be the opportunity to indulge in the local perch fish and chips or hang out at the beach which together make Port Dover famous. Long Distance Bus Fare applies and there will be a late return (after 6:00 Pm).
