Description

Join us on the third hike in our quest to complete a Caledon Hills Section E2E.  We will journey through some of the most undulating terrain on the Bruce Trail through the Hockley Valley but there will also be plenty of time to catch our breath and admire wildflowers too.  Did I say hills?  Yes Virginia, there will be hills.  There may also be some residual ice so please pack your icers just in case.  Please also bring a change of footwear and a garbage bag for the car shuttle, hiking boots, at least 2L of water, a warm drink, a snack, a lunch, a smile and an appreciation of nature.  Gaiters and poles highly recommended given muddy slippery slopes.  Please be ready to car shuttle at 9:15.  This is a strenuous but highly rewarding hike.
