While riding, we follow traffic regulations and never race. For lunch or supper, we often re-group at one of our favourite spots to picnic, barbeque, or to swim at a fellow rider's home. During the lunch-stop conversation you often learn some of the finer points of cycling, good equipment and the local routes. To hike alone is good, but to hike in a group is more fun and much safer. Most of our hikes are suitable for all ages and offer varying degrees of distances and difficulties.
Plans are already underway for more similar trips, including possibly to the Rocky Mountains.
Hiking has become very popular in the Club. The Halton Outdoor Club has expanded its outdoor recreational activities to include canoe and sea kayaking trips. These trips have taken us as far away as Vancouver Island or Killarny Provincial Park. Canoe day-outings to Rockwood Conservation Area or the Grant River have been great fun. I you are new to paddling and like to learn about it, join us on one of our introductory trips for canoeing and kayaking early in the season.
