Description

This is a special series of 4 hikes to complete the Blue Mountains section of the Bruce Trail over two weekends.  There is an accomplishment badge, included in the registration fee – which was designed by Joe Borges. The fee goes towards supporting the Blue Mountains Bruce Trail Club, which in turn supports the mission of the Bruce Trail Conservancy, which is: “Preserving a ribbon of wilderness, for everyone, forever.”

For this E2E in 6, we will be following the main trail southbound starting near Swiss Meadows and finishing in Lavender. Please note that you are signing up for the entire series of four hikes as a Group Hike. This series is geared to experienced hikers with the expectation of a 4.0 to 5.0 km/hr pace maintained over the hike distances below.

Day 1 – 17.8 km - The GPS coordinates for this day are provided.

Day 2 – 13.1 km

Day 3 – 22.4 km

Day 4 – 18.6 km

This hike is intended to be at a Brisk pace and through a very hilly section. Please be honest about your degree of physical fitness prior to registration. It is a group hike so it is important you are able to keep pace with the person in front of you.

Hikers will be expected to wear proper hiking footwear and layered clothing. Sufficient snacks, water (preferably warm), hiking poles, and weather-appropriate gear are recommended. Icers (crampons) may be necessary on certain days.

This series will require car shuttling, so you must be willing to drive and be a passenger.

A maximum of 1 of the 4 hikes can be self-completed as a result of scheduling challenges.  You must still complete the distance you have missed.  If you miss more than one but still complete the distances on your own, you may apply for the Blue Mountains Club's regular or Winter End to End badge.

Please note there are no refunds!
