Boyne Valley Provincial Park

Adventure off the beaten trail

May 29, 2022

Join in this 10km+ hike on some of Southern Ontario's most beautiful stretches of land.

It’s almost summer in Ontario and it is GORGEOUS outside! That’s why we’re inviting you to suit up, grab your hiking boots and join us at a new location!

Boyne Valley is a lesser known provincial park but with lots of stunning features: rolling countryside, beautiful forests and a dazzling lookout will speckle the trail.

**NOTE: As an extra layer to the adventure: this is a non-operational park which means there are no facilities (forest pees only)! We will be making a pit stop along the way for a bathroom break.

Our group will travel the Bruce Trail and adjacent side trails to cover a few forested loops. You will, have the option of completing the full 15kms or heading back to the bus early.

Difficulty: Although the trail itself is not technically difficult, the distance and lack of facilities will require a certain amount of comfort and endurance. If you are unsure if this is a good fit for you feel free to contact us: carly @ parkbus . ca

There are no bathrooms on this trail.
