Description

Spend a relaxed day in this recreational area on the Eramosa River. We'll explore the interesting geological features including potholes and caves (challenging climb into North America's second largest pothole is optional) as well as some of the area's history as evidenced by the ruins of the Harris Mill.

There will be a refreshment/pub stop after.
