Description
Join us for a winter hike on the Countryside Preserve trails, the Ewan and Historic Trails into downtown Uxbridge, and the Trans Canada Trail over the trestle bridge. We’ll also pass by the historic train station and railway museum. Due to the limited bus service plan on joining us for a refreshment stop before returning to the city. Bring icers (mandatory) and poles if preferred. The trails are well used so walking should be fairly easy unless there is a lot of fresh snow.
