Bruce Trail End to End #39: Silver Creek
Hike #39 Sixth Line, Georgetown to 8th Line , Acton We parked our car on 8th Line and took an Uber to Sixth Line to continue from where we left off on our last hike. The Uber ride cost about $18 not including tip. There are no washroom facilities on this leg of the trail; however, there is a motel on the trail route. From the stile on 6th Line the trail continues on road for about 2kms. After about a kilometre on 6th line the trail takes a right turn (east) onto Highway 7. Once we turned onto Highway 7 we spotted makers indicating that the Bruce Trail was formally offset from the road. The trail runs parallel to Highway 7 through a canopy of sumac trees. This abandoned trail was far too overgrown. If you choose to explore this, be sure to wear long pants as there are quite a few thistles, burs and nettles. If you are looking for a place to crash for the night, the Cedar Springs Motel looks like a nice spot. It's on Highway 7 and the Bruce trail runs right past it. Ceda...
