This is a special place. It's supremely quiet, incredibly beautiful and one of the first true wilderness trails that's within a couple of hours of Toronto. We'll head up North, into the Canadian Shield and hike a landscape that's dominated by barrens, pristine lakes and pines. The barrens are a unique phenomenon with some of the oldest exposed rock on earth that makes for a really scenic hike of about 8km. We're unlikely to see many people, if anyone all day.
Once we're done, we'll visit a little known landmark that's close by. We want to keep it as a surprise until we share the detailed trip plan but let's just say you'll be surprised at what you can find in the woods. It's hike based and suitable for everyone with no special equipment required.
