McCrae lake is an absolutely gorgeous conservation reserve at the Southern end of the Canadian Shield. Just a couple of hours away from Toronto, it's very quiet this time of year. We'll follow a trail through the forest that ultimately ends up at an epic scenic lookout where we'll stop for lunch.
This is a moderately challenging out and back 8km hike.
After our last trip to McCrae was thwarted by snow levels, we're back again now the weather has improved to visit one of our favourite and most beautiful hikes.
