Description
Explore the side trails of the Bruce Trail! This is Part 3 of a 3 part series of multi-day hikes that will cover almost all the side trails of the Peninsula section, and yes, there is a badge for that! Most hikes will be loops of 5-15 km and you can complete a full day or join in for select loops each day depending on your preference. We will do some nature ID as well for those that are working towards birding, fern or tree badges.
Part 1: April 7-9
Part 2: April 14-16
Part 3: April 28-30
Suggested accommodations: Silver Lake Mennonite Camp near Sauble Beach
