Itinerary:

This is a relatively short hike if you just want to get out of the city on a Saturday morning. The area was surrounded in extensive forest cover and one of the best cliff-edge ecosystems in the province.

Hiking on a cliff edge and forest trails with interpretive lookout and connections to Bruce Trail. We may do some of the Bruce trail sections within the Conservation area.

Mount Nemo Conservation Area has one of the best cliff ecosystems on Ontario’s Niagara Escarpment. Rich green ferns blanket limestone boulders scattered among old growth forests that are alive with jewel like birds. Crevice caves and ancient cedars, a thousand years old, can be seen all along the meandering cliff edge trail.

An interpretive lookout with spectacular views of the surrounding countryside lets visitors know why this natural environment park is worth protecting.

PLEASE NOTE: Proper hiking shoes or boots and appropriate clothing is a REQUIREMENT for this hike. There are a few hilly sections that will require boots with a good grippy sole. There may be mud or puddles on the trail. If you are the passenger, please bring a pair of shoes for change after the hike.
