Adventure Description

Want to see what you're capable of? This adventure is a massive 28km hike that takes in nearly a kilometer of elevation along the Bruce Trail. We'll take in the stunning 30m high Eugenia Falls before embarking on a loop through the Niagara escarpment - across farmland, woods, Hoggs Falls and up and down some more technical sections. While the distance is pretty intimidating, it's a safe spot to test ourselves being close to civilization but quiet enough that we shouldn't see many other people.

Hogg's Falls

At almost 30km, the hike is likely to take us about 10 hours. We'll be moving at a relatively fast pace and the adventure is only suitable for those who know they can hike that far - you'll need to have a high level of fitness to be able to complete it. It's rare to go this distance in a day but totally manageable and we'll have an incredible sense of achievement by the end of it. If you have questions about your suitability, send a message in the Discord channel so we can discuss it in advance.
