S1.Ep5 "Mt.Nemo" Hiking The Bruce Trail End To End : A Journey Across Ontario
Season 1, Episode 5 : “Mt.Nemo”
In this episode, take a journey up the iconic Mt. Nemo. This remarkable rock outcrop is the dominant feature on the Western skyline if you are anywhere near Hamilton Harbor on Lake Ontario and was the closest access to the Bruce Trail from where I grew up in Burlington. If I needed an escape, this was often where I went.
Not much can be said, other than enjoy the beautiful views of the sprawling lowland countryside and Lake Ontario to the east and Rattlesnake Point and the Nassagaweya canyon to the west. As the wind rips along the cliff edge, the turkey vultures whip by and play in the strong air currents that come up through the valleys.
From there the hike heads past a beautiful old quarry on Colling Road and leads to a nice country walk down Blind Line between Lowville and Cedar Springs where Bronte Creek flows through. Lots to explore in there, and some magnificent big trees in that valley.
This short but beautiful hike ended at Twiss Rd. and No.8 Sideroad.
