Terrain and trail conditions play a part in determining speed and difficulty of a hike. Choose a hike that suits your capabilities and comfort level.  The Dufferin Hiland Bruce Trail Hikes schedule usually include hikes ranging from challenging to family-friendly.

Always carry snacks and lots of water. Hiking boots are recommended, sturdy shoes will do on shorter hikes on easy to moderate terrain. A change of socks is recommended, as well as an extra pair of shoes for the trip home. Snowshoes or icers may be required for winter hikes. If you have them, please bring them along. If unsure, please contact the hike leader.

All km references are to the 29th Edition of the Bruce Trail Guide.
