Join us for a breathtaking 10km trek through the stunning wilderness of Muskoka. We'll be exploring a little known spot with pristine lakes, lush forests, and incredible rocky landscapes.
As we hike along the trail, we'll trace the edge of a crystal-clear lake and wander through dense, old-growth forests where towering trees create a green canopy overhead. Keep your eyes peeled for glimpses of wildlife like moose, beavers, and all sorts of birds that call this place home.
One of the coolest parts of the hike is getting to see the raw beauty of the Canadian Shield up close. Picture ancient granite cliffs rising up from the shoreline, carved by glaciers over millions of years. We'll stop at several lookout points where you can take in the incredible panoramic views of the surrounding wilderness.
Whether you're a seasoned hiker or just looking to get out in nature, this 10km trail has something for everyone. There's a mix of terrain, including boardwalks, rocky sections, and well-maintained paths which is suitable for any moderately fit hiker.
