Description

Join us for a hike along one of Ontario's historic railway bridges in St Thomas, where you’ll enjoy breathtaking panoramic views of Southern Ontario. As we trek through this scenic landscape, you’ll discover traces of the railways’ impact on the region's history and have the chance to spot a wide variety of birds soaring overhead—perfect for birdwatchers among us. Art enthusiasts will enjoy the stunning murals and sculptures created by local artists that we’ll encounter along the way.

After our 9 km hike, we’ll relax at a local brewery, where you'll find an impressive selection of drinks to sample.

What to Expect on a WU Trip

Is a Wilderness Union Trip Right for You?
We offer a unique alternative to commercial tours. We don't just show you incredible natural wonders, we teach you to become confident in nature so you can discover the life changing magic of the outdoors. You'll love it here if:
- You want to make real friends, not just small talk with strangers
- You prefer "off the beaten path" over "all-inclusive resort"
- You're happy to pitch in and learn new skills (e.g., helping with camp setup or group tasks)
- You value the journey and the company as much as the destination

Who Else Will Be There
WU is aimed at a younger generation of outdoor lovers who don't see themselves represented in traditional hiking clubs and our members are typically 20-40 years old. Whether you're brand new to the outdoors or have plenty of experience, you'll find something for you.

Our Guides
All of our guides are highly qualified, passionate outdoor lovers, just like you. They love to share their knowledge and will help you see our destinations in another light, often teaching you something along the trail.
