Description

Please join us on Sunday, March 15th for our Maple Syrup Hike!  We will begin by travelling to the village of Warkworth to attend the 38th Annual Warkworth Maple Syrup Festival.  At Warkworth we will board a free shuttle bus to Sandy Flat Sugar Bush about 5 km away, where you can enjoy a pancake breakfast, horse and wagon rides, maple taffy in the snow, and take in live musical entertainment.  We will then head back downtown and allow some time to visit shops, boutiques and cafés, all bursting with maple themed items. Early in the afternoon we will start hiking along the beautiful Millenium Trail and will likely continue along the Oak Ridges trail (final hiking route to be determined) for a fun relaxing hike.  Return back to the City around 6.30 pm.  Please note that you must bring cash to attend the Festival and participate in Festival Events.  Entry to the Sugar Bush is $5 per person, the pancake breakfast is $15 (children 12 years and under $10), and sleigh rides are $3 per person.  See https://warkworthmaplesyrupfestival.ca/ for more details about the Festival.
