(!) New rule in effect. I will be checking registrants name and profile photo to ensure they can be traced. A proper profile includes a recognizable first name and a clearly identifiable photo (without the need of magnification).
The total distance is 8.5 km on flat land.
We will leave right at 10 AM. Please arrive a few minutes early. We will be entering the trail through the Convoy Road entrance, and then go counter-clockwise through the loop (ie. 43G -> 44D). If you arrive a couple of minutes late you have a good chance to catch up with us.
The walk includes an introduction and welcome exercise, and then we will relax and enjoy our time in nature.
Notes:
1. No pets for this walk.
2. Facility is not available.
3. If photos of others are taken make sure that you acquired their permissions before posting them on this page.
4. Trip Reports: bit.ly/2WxyWLz, bit.ly/2N6xD2N
5. Difficulty - This hike is at Level 1. See group description page for details.
6. Directions: IKEA (arbitrary starting point) to P18: goo.gl/maps/hZtxxzz6Wzz
7. Description: The hike is a 5 kilometer loop through natural forests, reclaimed white and red pine forests and marshlands. It should take between 60 and 90 minutes to complete following trails 43 and 44. Starting at the parking lot head north and cross Davidson Road to the beginning of the trail, here you'll see an information panel explaining the history or the forest. Before 1962, most of this area was cleared farmland. After it was purchased by the NCC both red and white pines were planted in most of the clearings and the area was eventually developed into a full grown forest.
