Itinerary:

Currently there is a waitlist because we have a shortage of drivers. If you are a driver, you will be moved on to the activity list immediately. Until we have enough drivers, there will be no opportunities for bringing non-members (guests)

This is a 15K relatively easy hike through the Oak Ridges Moraine. The trails are mostly sandy and there is little elevation. This is one of Rocky's favourite hikes - it's off leash friendly and there is a great pond for swimming early on in our hike. The folks at Toronto Hiking have provided a longer loop route that covers Eldred King and several side loops to make this an enjoyable and easy day hike. The perfect way to spend a lazy Sunday of a long weekend!

This is an easy hike and good for beginners. The pace will be slow to moderate. Dogs are allowed off leash, however it is likely we'll be encountering horses.

After the hike, we'll be heading to Chalker's as per usual for some more lazy long weekend Sunday eat and drink (and pool)
