To celebrate the 19th anniversary of the creation of Pinecone-Burke Provincial Park, the Burke Mountain Naturalists will host a free guided hike on Burke Mountain on Sunday, June 8.
This moderate hike on the Woodland Walk Trail will travel through a mature second-growth forest.
There will be an elevation gain of approximately 300 m and the round-trip distance is 11.5 km.
Participants should wear sturdy hiking footwear, bring water, a lunch and appropriate clothing for this five-hour hike (they should also be prepared to cross a few small creeks by easy boulder-hopping, although there will be help in crossing safely).
The trail is not suitable for young children and a waiver must be signed to participate in this outing.
The hike will depart at 8 am. Call Ian at 604-939-4039 to register and for the meeting location.
