Description
Chi-Cheemaun Festival - Bruce Trail Hike. We will hike the Main Bruce Trail from the cairn in Tobermory to the Burnt Loop Side Trail.
This is a lovely hike through an enchanting forest with pretty views of Georgian Bay, Flower Pot, and Bear's Rump Islands taking approximately 3 hours. We will hike at steady pace with brief stops for drinks/snacks and water views.
The terrain on the first part of this trail is level, however the Burnt Loop Side Trail is a meandering, rocky trail with some short ups and downs and includes a short rocky beach section.
We will end at the Visitor’s Centre in the Bruce Peninsula National Park.
Make sure to wear appropriate clothing, and hiking boots or sturdy walking/running shoes. Bring a light backpack for water and snacks.
