About the Hike -----------------------------------------------

Join the English Conversations on the Trails, a hike series led by the Rainbow Routes Association and Greater Sudbury Public Library. Our hikes aim to create inclusive experiences on local trails and walkways, promoting accessible outdoor recreation opportunities.

Come join us on Saturday July 26, 2025 as we continue our training for the 2025 Camino. We will be hiking along the Bell Park Boardwalk and around Science North following the Camino Route. While out on the trail, we will be engaging in urban poling, a form of Nordic walking. Both experienced and new participants are welcome. This hike will be led by Myfawny McIntosh, who will be providing instructions on proper poling techniques.

*Urban poles will be provided upon request. Please indicate below if you will require them at least 48 hours prior to hike.
