    Location (Google Maps): BTC Reference Guide, Map 18, Caledon Hills section, Hockley Valley; the parking area on Dunby Rd. (at km 68)

    We will depart from the parking area on Dunby Rd. (at km 68) and quietly walk south on the Bruce Trail through a pleasant re-forested area with scenic views and on to the forests of the Hockley Valley Provincial Nature Reserve. We then follow the Cam Snell Side Trail enjoying the company of a stream before turning east through woodlands to re-join the Bruce Trail and return to our start point. Key words for this walk — forest, stream and some long steepish sections. Walkers are encouraged to take the steepish sections at their own pace – some may prefer to maintain a steady pace drinking in the forest air and some may prefer to pause for breaths and absorb the green around them. Please bring water and a lunch for on the trail.
