Description

Join us for a great hike in the Beaver Valley. We will split into two groups, a moderate group (led by Celia and Duro) and a faster group (led by Martina and Roland).  The moderate group will hike 14.5 km at a 3.5 km/hr pace, the faster group will hike about 16.5 km at 4 km/hr +. We will all stop to enjoy the awesome views of Georgian Bay from various spots along the top of the escarpment. A few fun hills, hopefully some spring wildflowers, and forest cover for shade.  Refreshment stop in the Village at Blue Mountain. This area has lots of poison ivy so wear long pants for protection. Also pack a lunch and two litres of water.

Departure 1: 8 AM 10 York Mills Rd

Departure 2: 8:20 AM HWY 400 and Major Mac Park and Ride (infront of the GO bus stop)
