This hike is approximately 15km that goes up, along, around and back down the Niagara Escarpment. I expect to keep a pace of at least 4.0 km/hr and we will be hiking for approximately 3.5 hours.
We will meet at the Hamilton GO Centre and begin our trip with 227 step ascent up to the top of the "Mountain" and join with the Bruce Trail. We'll meander along and down the escarpment and link up to the Chedoke Radial Trail, winding our way back up the escarpment. We'll follow the the Scenic Park Side Trail across the top of the escarpment, passing Princess Falls and Cliffview Falls. We'll then make the sharp 326 step descent down the escarpment and wander through the streets of Durand Village. We'll end our hike with some drink and food at a pub about 3 blocks from the GO Centre. We will stop for a snack/lunch break, likely at Scenic Park where there are some benches we may be able to use. There are no facilities at Scenic Park. Important:
