    Description

    Each Friday we will explore different neighbourhoods, trails and parkland throughout Historic Niagara-on-the-Lake.

    Moderate pace with some weeks entirely on sidewalks and roads while others may include a mix of trails and paved pathways. Great way to build up endurance for longer more strenuous hikes.

    Prepare for cooler windy conditions on open parkland and along Lake Ontario and Niagara River trails.

    Plan to stay for conversation and a warm cup of coffee or tea at Sweets & Swirls, Community Centre, Niagara Stone Road, NOTL

    Pace: Medium
    Terrain: Moderate, Some steep sections
    Length of Hike: 8.1 km

    Description

    We will be hiking to Loree Forest from Intercept Side Trail, getting some cardio on the few climbs on the way.  Once we loop the forest, we’ll continue down to the Loree side Trail, then walk back to our cars. The leaves will be gone so there will be great views – a perk of late fall hiking.  Bring a snack and sufficient water.  Speaking of late fall, our outing will depend on what the weather does and you’ll be kept in the loop on that.

    Description

    Join Brian Popelier, BTC Ecologist on this hike as we learn about the restoration of this lovely BTC Nature Reserve. We will take a stroll here to see nature’s bounty  and imagine how birds and animals depend on it for nourishment and nest building. Then – a hop, skip and jump away is the John Appleton Sidetrail and Hawthorne Sidetrail which creates  a loop with the main trail , in total ~3 km. This well protected walk in the woods path meanders through the property crossing crevices and a few very short “up and down” sections.
