Description
Come on out and burn off a few calories before the holidays!
We will hike the Main Trail north from 7th Line to 5 Side Road then loop through the beautiful Hockleycrest property on a combination of the Main Trail and Darcy, Hockleycrest and Harmony Side Trails before returning to 7th Line on the Main Trail. The terrain varies from rolling hills and open hilltops, hardwood bush and pine plantations. There will be a few ups and downs including one steep valley that we will ascend and descend on both the way out and back!
The leaves are down and can be slippery - hiking boots required, hiking poles are recommended.
There will be stops for water along the way and a longer snack / lunch break later in the hike. Bring plenty of water, and dress in layers appropriate for the cooler weather.
