Description

Join us for an enjoyable fall hike in Uxbridge! We’ll explore parts of Wilder Forest, Walker Woods, and Glen Major Forest in a loop starting from Brock Road, passing Concession Road 6, heading west and back. Along the main trail, we’ll also venture onto several side trails.

Please stay on the designated trails at all times. Expect beautiful scenic views and lookouts facing south, with a mix of hilly and flat segments. Be prepared for variable weather—chilly and windy conditions are likely this time of year. Boots mandatory, poles recommended.

Bring at least 2 liters of water and your favorite snacks. We’ll have frequent 2-minute breaks for hydration and lookout photos, along with a 20-minute lunch stop at the Aggregate Pit look out. Please pack your own lunch and refreshments for an enjoyable outdoor meal.

Don’t forget your camera and a smile as we explore the beauty of the Uxbridge trails!
