Description

Join us for three days of guided hiking on the beautiful Saugeen Peninsula. Spend your days on the Bruce Trail and your evenings at Evergreen Resort overlooking Lake Huron.

We will explore the Skinner's Bluff, Cape Crocker, Hope Bay, Lion’s Head, and/or Cape Chin areas. Hikes will be up to 15 km (dropouts will not be possible) with lots of awesome views. Expect some strenuous climbs, some challenging footing over boulders and crevasses, and some exposed sections. These hikes are not suitable for people who are afraid of heights. All fit, experienced hikers comfortable walking on this type or terrain are welcome. There will be a moderate group and a slightly faster group; both will do full day hikes with no dropouts. Please note: there will not be a sight seeing group or other activities for non-hikers.

Accommodation is in one-, two-, and three-bedroom cottages (linens, bedding, and towels provided). Each cottage has a full bathroom, fridge, and heater. The resort has a hot tub and a private beach perfect for viewing sunsets. Cost is $352.04 per person (including all taxes, gratuity extra). This includes two nights’ accommodation, two dinners, two breakfasts, and two boxed lunches.

Coach fare is $140 for members, $150 for non-members, and $80 for children.
