Hike #12 - Bruce trail Iroquoia section 86.8-102.3

total hiked: 225.5
total time: 45:30



Starting at the bottom of Mt. Nemo there is a steep and rocky climb to get you up the escarpment, but it is well worth it at the top. This is the only climbing for a while and the top has some great views of Milton and farmland around. Can even see the Velodrome here!



Leaving the park there is a long stretch of road to get you North to more trails near Britannia. Its at least a quiet road as most of the traffic stays on the major road of Guelph line and Appleby.



There is a really nice set 4-5km of trail near Twiss road that felt like a perfect example of what trails in Ontario are like. Large oak trees, a few ponds, lots of small birds and squirrels, and even a fat ground hog ran by me. Its not a loop trail and there were no lookouts, but for some reason stood out to me as my favourite trail so far.

Another trip out and I should be done with the Iroquoia section, and have hit 1/4 of the entire Bruce trail done. Only 650km to go...
