S1.Ep12 "Rambling Up To Hockley Valley" Hiking The Bruce Trail End To End
End to End : Hiking the Bruce Trail, A Journey Across Ontario
Season 1, Episode 12 : “Rambling Up To Hockley Valley”
The Bruce Trail Journey continues at 7th line, just north of Mono Mills as we amble and ramble up to the incredible Hockley Valley. This is a very hilly section and one for the glutes, but the landscape is amazing. The trees are large and plentiful and the lush forest canopy sometimes seems to touch the sky.
The whole stretch is quite spectacular. What seemed like a relatively short distance on the map turned into a long journey on the trail with it’s many twists and turns and ups and downs. We hiked up and down the many hills trodding through the remnants of the Oak Ridges Moraine’s sandy hills and we begin to re-enter Escarpment country approaching Mono Cliffs.
Reaching the Nottawasaga River at the valley floor was a great treat as the water was still ice cold and had incredible healing power on our throbbing feet. This gave us the boost we needed to finish the day trekking up and up and up and out of the valley hiking through the Hockley Valley Provincial Nature Reserve. More beautiful big trees.
We ended the day at the famous “Dunby Road” setting up our next hike through Mono Cliffs.
This was the third day of our 4 day stretch in May where we covered 100km of trail and made it to the Dufferin Highlands.
