Description
THIS HIKE HAS BEEN RESCHEDULED TO SUNDAY, OCTOBER 20 DUE TO INCLEMENT WEATHER.
Everyone’s invited to join us in celebrating the Bruce Trail with the Big Loop Bruce Trail Hike where we’ll hike the Boundary Bluff and Hart’s Tongue side trails as well as some of Sydney Bay’s main trail through Neyaashiinigmiing. We’ll meander through the rich green woods and along steep, rocky talus slope interspersed with extraordinary vistas overlooking Sydney Bay and scenic views of the Bluffs from below. The fall views are sure to bring about a sense of wonder and awe!
In order to reduce the cost of parking at Cape Croker Park ($15 per vehicle), we will be meeting in the parking lot next to the Hope Bay Campground and carpooling to the Park to begin our hike. Depending on the group size & vehicle capacity, your individual cost for parking will be approximately $5.
This hike is for those looking for a more challenging trek in duration, distance and difficulty. Bring lots of water and a snack or light lunch as we'll be out for 3-4 hours. Hiking boots and trekking poles are advised due to rocky, uneven, and sometimes-slippery terrain. This hike will run rain or shine.
