JOIN US FOR A FUN HIKE at Dundas Peak and get some amazing photos from the top of the peak!
Here is what to expect:
- 9km hike suitable for strong beginners and intermediate-level hikers
- forested paths and waterfalls as we hike to Dundas peak and Tews falls, checking out Sydenham falls along the way.
- lots of steps so it'll be a good workout for your legs and glutes!
- some technical hiking over tree roots and small rocks
- 125m elevation gain... gentle inclines and declines
- beautiful views at Dundas Peak and of Tew Falls
* free parking
* yoga stretches to warm up before we start the hike and again at the end of the hike
* relaxed pace (we are NOT a fast hiking group). We wait for everyone and slow down when needed/stop and take breaks as needed.
* mindful meditation includes forest bathing (still, quiet time in the forest). We will find a spot in the forest to practise for a minimum of 10 minutes of silent meditation.
* lunch in the forest
