Description

This 10km hike is one of the most beautiful trails in Muskoka. We'll walk through pine forests, past colossal boulders and along the incredibly picturesque Hardy lake, home of some of the most instagrammed boardwalk photos in the province!

In the past we've seen a family of otters here and plenty of beavers so fingers crossed for some good wildlife spotting.

Once we're done taking in this iconic trail, we'll head to a secret location with one of the best views in Muskoka.

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.
