The Bruce Trail

The Bruce Trail is a remarkable footpath extending over 890 kilometers (553 miles) from Niagara-on-the-Lake to Tobermory, following the Niagara Escarpment. Established in 1963, it's maintained by the Bruce Trail Conservancy and dedicated volunteers. The trail showcases a wide variety of ecosystems, including forests, cliffs, waterfalls, and rocky terrain. It's divided into nine sections, each offering a unique hiking experience. Visitors can explore portions of the trail for a day hike or undertake the ambitious challenge of completing the entire length. The trail's difficulty varies significantly depending on the section, ranging from relatively flat and easy walks to steep and challenging climbs. It is a popular destination for hikers of all levels, nature enthusiasts, and those seeking an immersive outdoor experience.
