HIke #24: Sydenham Street, Dundas to Old Guelph Road

  Sydenham Street to Old Guelph Road We started our hike today at the Sydenham Street lookout. There is limited parking in the small lot. We parked our second car on Old Guelph Road. There is free parking at both locations. From the parking lot take the 80 metre Sydenham Side Trail to the Bruce Trail. Note that Rock Chapel Parking lot is currently closed.  The section of the trail from the Sydenham Lookout to the Rock Chapel Parking Lot is easy; however, the section from Rock Chapel to Old Guelph Road is moderate with rolling hills. The muddy conditions made the stretch to Old Guelph Road challenging today. If you are looking for a nice gentle walk in the woods I suggest parking at Sydenham Street lookout and hiking in and out to Borer's Falls...if mud sliding is more your thing then continue onwards to Old Guelph Road! Sydenham Lookout The Bruce Trail continues along Sydenham St towards the Flamborough sign before turning onto Romar Drive. If you go down the wood stairs at the end
