Easy Walks - 2010

We continue with a varied series of Easy Walks led by Elaine Wassermann, most of which will be about two hours duration, over easy treadways except where noted.. Read the hike details carefully for both the Easy Walks and our Regular Hikes. A few will be described as moderate or strenuous. Note: On all hikes, bring plenty of water, snacks and a lunch, if required. Wear sturdy hiking footwear, and dress in layers.

Our hikes will continue to be Looney/Tooney Hikes. On a strictly voluntary basis, participating hikers may donate to the Peninsula Bruce Trail Club’s fund raising campaign as part of our club’s commitment to contribute to the BTC goal to secure the trail. This program is for the future preservation of the Bruce Trail on escarpment lands.
