Description
Join us for a fun day exploring Warsaw Caves Conservation Area. We will hike about 15 km (dropout after 9 km) at a 3.5 to 4 km/hr pace through forests, across open limestone plains, past potholes and kettles, and stop to enjoy the lookout over the Indian River valley. After the hike you will have about an hour to go spelunking (caving) and discover the park's seven caves, or relax on the beach. If it's hot bring a swimsuit and cool off in the Indian River.
Pack lunch, snacks, enough water for the day (at least two litres), sunhat, sunscreen, bug repellent, bug mesh, and rain protection. If you plan to go spelunking, bring a headlight.
There will be no washroom/refreshment stop on the way up or down.
Bus will depart from 10 York Mills Rd at 8 AM. We hope to be back in the city around 6 PM.
