Hike Details: This 6 km loop includes a lovely forested area that features growth of a wide variety of trees, ferns, and wildflowers as part of the rugged terrain, starting with a back road portion. In addition, you can view crevice caves (we don’t hike through them) and marvellous vistas out over the escarpment.  We will hike to the highest point on the Bruce Trail, which is 540 metres.
