Description

Scottsdale Farm is a beautiful Heritage Farm, donated to Ontario Heritage Foundation by the Bennett Family. The farm buildings and home are still there. Both Bruce Trail main and side trails criss cross through this area. Today awe will access the main trail and hike west to Highway 7 and then use the Duff Pit Side trail to see the old pit grounds and on to the former reservoir for Georgetown, located in a beautiful setting. Please meet in the parking lot of Scottsdale Farm, located on the east side of Trafalgar Rd. Bring a snack, water and poles if using.
