Description

Parking at the Woodford community centre (just north of km 41.7 in the Sydenham section), we will cross to the south side of Hwy 26. We will hike through some crevices, see a giant pothole converted into a lime kiln and other signs of an old pioneer settlement (church foundation) and continue on to the Escarpment edge. We will then loop back to pick up the start of Crevice Springs Side Trail, exploring crevices formed when dolostone loosened from the face of the Escarpment. Ultimately we will descend before beginning the ascent through an interesting crevice called the “hole-in-the-wall”. Online registration is preferred. We are accepting hikers that show up the morning of the hike.
