Description

Please Note: Snowshoes are Required

We will be doing a 6km snowshoe hike starting on the Pine River Nature Reserve and weather permitting, following a horse trail, crossing a pond on Ministry of Natural Resources property and along the Pine River then north to enter the Pine River Nature Reserve once again.

If the weather is not permitting us to cross the pond safely, we will be mainly traversing the Pine River Nature Reserve on an alternate route but will still be visiting the Pine River Pond.

This hike has an average elevation decline and gain of 110 meters and if the weather does permit our crossing, there will most likely be some deep snow.

Be sure to bring Snowshoes, Water, and a snack.
