Beaver Valley Fall Colours Hike with Lilla Fodor
October 5, 2022 @ 10:30 am – 2:30 pm
Join us for a spectacular Fall Colours hike across the top of Beaver Valley, down through Bowles Gully and back up through the Kimberley Forest.
This is an up to 4 hour hilly hike, taking in parts of the Beaver Valley Ski Club hills with long views over Beaver Valley, a stroll by the quaint ski chalets along the bottom of the hill and a picnic lunch halfway through by the Beaver River. After lunch we will be leisurely making our way back up along the Kimberley Forest Side Trail and doubling back to our vehicles on the main Bruce Trail.
During this fall colours tour, Lilla will also share about the history and geology of the Beaver Valley, Bowles Gully and the Kimberley Forest.
Pack a lunch; sturdy hiking footwear and hiking poles would be a help.
