Itinerary:
Lets take advantage of lighter evenings!!

approx 7-8km. With elevation of approx 250-300m total - related to getting down to and then out of the river valley (2x - once on each side of the river).

the trail starts flat and in the forest, then a good downhill into the river valley. We'll follow the slate pathway along the river and across the Twin Bridges (only one bridge now) to the barrier at Fisherman's trail. Then, we'll go up Homestead Trail to complete a loop that takes us back to Twin Bridges, and we'll return the way we came.

A favourite for North Shore trail runners and dog walkers.
