Hike Description: The hike will provide heart pumping action! It take us on some beautiful Bruce Trail Side Trails in Boyne Valley Provincial Park, with varied terrain including steep inclines, loose gravel, narrow paths, walking along the edge of paths, crossing dried river beds, meadows and woods. You’ll enjoy some spectacular views, especially on the Murphy’s Pinnacle Lookout. Challenges include some overgrown sections, so it is advised to wear long pants and sleeves to protect against ticks. Fall colours should be at, or close to their peak at that time.
What to bring: Snacks, lunch, water, personal first aid kit, health card/ID, sun screen, sun hat, rain gear (just in case). Hiking poles are highly recommended. Sturdy hiking boots required. Dress for the weather. No dogs please.
