Description

As we enter the Bluewater Beach Park, we will pass the famous "Wiarton Willie" statue and continue along the waterfront until we reach Bayview Street below Spirit Rock. The Trail will then turn abruptly left and we will ascend the Escarpment via an iron spiral staircase to the Spirit Rock Conservation Area. We will visit the Spirit Rock Lookout and the Corran ruins then head back south to our cars via the Spirit Rock Side Trail and the Wiarton Side Trail. Please arrive 15 minutes before the start time.
