Description
Starting at Hidden Valley Park we will follow the Hidden Valley Multi-use Trail along Grindstone Creek. We will then enter the Hendrie Valley Sanctuary of the Royal Botanical Gardens and follow various trails as a far as the blocked Valley Inn bridge, have a snack and returning mostly the way we came. Unless the ground is frozen, there is likely to be one very muddy section, but all the birds we should see, will hopefully make up for it. Distance about 7.0 km. Bring icers , snack and water.
