Description
The Walk In Nature Series (WINS) consists of 2 hour hikes in the Sydenham section of the Bruce Trail that combine nature appreciation with fitness in a safe and welcoming group environment led by an experienced hike leader. Consider these hikes to be appointments with yourself in nature that promote health and fitness.
Greet the fresh air of one of the first days of spring along the Keeling side trail, then turning off the rail trail we enjoy a balloon hike through the forests of the Sydenham Nature Reserve side trail.
Registrants will be sent an email the day before the hike with an update of trail conditions and what to bring and which footwear is best.
