Description
Caledon Hills Section. We drive to Mono Centre (about 45
minutes from Collingwood south on Airport Road) and
park in the village parking lot. We will enter the park and
pick up the main trail at km 1.2 and climb up the escarpment,
we will continue along the main trail past McCarston’s lake
to km 5.1 where we take the Lookout side trail.
We will have our lunch at the amazing viewpoint,
then return down the Spillway Trail and along the valley
bottom to exit the park, having completed our circuit,
hopefully on snow shoes.
Bring beverages and a lunch.
The Mono Cliffs Inn is a pleasant watering hole for those
who might be feeling like some more sustenance before heading back north !
