Description
Come celebrate Trafalgar Day on the brand new BTC Trafalgar Side Trail as we do a 17 km loop hike of the many Side Trails of Scotsdale Farm. There will be the traces of a railway from Toronto to Guelph hidden in the bush. There will be a pit, a reservoir, a quarry, three streams, and perhaps a salamander or two. The area is carpeted with leaves and the Fall colours remain too. Please bring a warm drink, water, a snack, a smile and an appreciation of nature. Boardwalks and bridges will be slippery. Extra caution required. Hiking boots mandatory. Please dress in layers for the weather.
