 Bruce Trail Hike-a-thon 2025
 Description

Join the Hike-a-thon and support the Trail you love to explore!

 

The Bruce Trail Hike-a-thon is a month-long, self-led, hiking and fundraising event in support of the Bruce Trail Conservancy mission: Preserving a ribbon of wilderness, for everyone, forever.

Hike-a-thoners set themselves a hiking goal for the month of May, seek donations from friends and family, and hit the trail.

Join the Hike-a-thon community and give back to the Trail you love with each footstep, while competing for fun prizes. Hikers of all skills and ages are encouraged.

Fundraise starting April 1, and hike throughout May!
