We will carpool to Tim’s in Wiarton in the Peninsula section,
then arrange a shuttle, leaving a car at km 61.0 before proceeding to the start of the hike at Jackson Cove Rd km 51.0. From
here we will hike north on the main trail with great lookouts
over Georgian Bay and through Alvar areas, before we take the
ladder down to the shoreline of Rush Cove and return to the
starting point via the Pease Side Trail and the Jackson Cove Side
Trail. A shorter hike can be arranged, depending on the availability of cars. This would also start at km 51.0, include Rush Cove
and end at the parking lot at km 61.0. Bring water, lunch and
good footwear.
