We're hiking one of the most beautiful true wilderness trails that's within a couple of hours of Toronto. We'll head up North, into the Canadian Shield and hike a landscape that's dominated by barrens, pristine lakes and pines. The barrens are pretty unique with some of the oldest exposed rock on earth that makes for a really scenic hike.
The plan is to hike about 8km with a stop for lunch where we'll also get a campfire going with a lesson on getting a fire started. This is a very quiet location that crosses through crown land and sees very few other visitors so we're keeping the exact location secret until sign-up.
It's a relatively easy hike but weather conditions could make it more challenging. Ice spikes will be provided free of charge and snowshoes are available for rent if needed.
Trip cost:
Friends - $100+HST ($50+HST if self-driving)
Explorers - $50+HST ($0 if self-driving)
Pathfinders - $0
