(Updated) Hilton Falls and The Giant Maze
group hike and Canada`s largest maze pop-up experience
march 12, 2023
Hilton Falls Conservation Area, located in Milton, Ontario. Various trails go through the forest to the river and waterfall, different levels of difficulty for everyone.
After 3 hours of hiking and a short transfer, we will arrive at the largest maze of its kind made in Canada. Imagine a giant 120-by-120-foot giant wooden labyrinth in the open air! Get ready to play and run around. You can also enjoy winter games, train rides, as well as a scavenger hunt. If you need a break, the event also has food trucks, a hot chocolate bar, live DJs, and marshmallow fire pits.

WHAT TO EXPECT WITH ACTIVEDAYS
To us, facilitating this event is about creating an environment that you can engage with in your own way. This is your experience and everyone has their own relationship with the outdoors and their bodies. We want to meet you where you are at. There may be a number of groups hiking at various speeds for you to take part in, or the option to explore o your own.
Active Days is also a community. This is an inclusive space to meet new people, share stories and have fun! To us, there is no better place to get to know someone than the outdoors. We all share a desire to get out, explore and move.
All ActiveDays participants are required to sign a waiver. We will bring printed copies of the waiver to sign on the bus. You can find a digital copy of a sample waiver HERE
