Description
Come to one, a few, or all of these hikes to celebrate Caledon's 60th anniversary! In completing all 5 of these hikes, you'll qualify for BOTH of Caledon's NEW badges. On this first of five hikes, we'll meet at the north end of the Toronto section (due to no parking at the very south end of Caledon) and shuttle to our starting point. We'll hike through the Forks of the Credit Provincial Park, the Badlands (which may be muddy) and finish with an easy walk back to the vehicles. Although the hike is approximately 18km, there will be about 6km of road walking. If the Spirit Tree Cidery is open, you may wish stop by after the hike.
We'll stop for a short snack break and also a lunch break, so please bring enough food to last the hike, 2L of water, bug repellent, and proper hiking attire. Hiking boots/shoes are mandatory. It may be rainy so ensure you have rain gear with you.
