Itinerary:

We will be hiking the Black Bank section of the Bruce Trail (part of the Dufferin Hi-Lands). The hike is beautiful, not too technically challenging, but I will try to keep it moving at an energetic pace. No steep climbs but quite a bit of walking up and down hills . Nice lookouts. There are some areas of rough footing - mandatory hiking shoes/boots.

Participants must be able to hike at a minimum of 4.5k/hour pace to come on this hike. We will not be waiting for those unable to keep up as it is the responsibility of those coming to ensure they can hike at this pace before joining us. There will be no dropouts.

The hike will be 26.8k long. Participants must show they are able to hike the distance and terrain.
