GENERAL DESCRIPTION

Point of interests

A combination of radial and forest trails using local and Bruce Trails.  The Radial trail is a multi use 2.7 km section of the Bruce Trail. There are stone cliffs and several seasonal waterfalls to see. Often wildlife can be viewed in the forest or meadow.

The ET&T Revisited series offers hikes that follow local trails that a group of hikers compiled into a guide book titled “Escarpment Trails and Treks: Two-Hour Hikes in Halton, Hamilton and Niagara”. These hikes are ideal for getting to know local trails in only 2-3 hours and all in close proximity to your home in Halton, Hamilton and Niagara Region, Southern Ontario.
