This custom map is georeferenced, meaning it will show you where you are on the map in the right software and lays out the rough path that we’ll be following. It’s opened with the Avenza app which must be downloaded and installed in advance of the adventure.
You should also download the What3words app - this makes it easy to share and find locations in the unlikely event that you get lost.

Please eat dinner before leaving or bring some with you, along with at least 2 litres of water.
It's important that you listen to the guides and follow their instructions at all times.
Hiking injuries: Wear appropriate footwear (ankle high hiking boots) and hike within your abilities. If you need extra support, bring hiking poles.
Getting lost: All hikers must remain with the group at all times. If you do find yourself lost at any point, stay where you are and call for help. If you have a whistle, bring it. Be sure to also download and install the map!
Trail conditions: Trails may be muddy- ensure you're wearing proper footwear with tread and ankle support.
Wildlife: Although rare, some larger wildlife can be found in this area. If you come across a larger animal, back away and alert the group. Your guide will give you further instructions.
Ticks - Ticks are active across much of Ontario when above freezing temperatures. Black Legged Ticks have the risk of carrying Lyme disease, so it's important that you check yourself thoroughly after each hike. You're also recommended to have your legs covered so it's harder for them to latch on.
All of the areas we visit across Ontario are situated on lands with deep histories and ongoing connections to Indigenous Nations, whose mutual relationships date back to time immemorial. Often rooted in a deep respect for the land, these predate European colonization and offer values that we strive to follow.
At Wilderness Union, we recognize that being on these lands carries a responsibility to learn and reflect. We use the Native Land map to better understand the territories we explore. We’ve found that a deeper understanding of the land’s history leads to a more robust appreciation of our time in nature and a change to how we behave in it. We strongly encourage you to take a moment to explore the resources available on that site- there is a ton of fantastic information.
For this adventure specifically, we’ll be trekking through the Vaughan region of the GTA, which lies within the traditional territories of the Haudenosaunee, the Huron-Wendat, and, more recently, the Mississaugas of the Credit First Nation.
