This Bruce Trail hike is an in and out hike from Speyside (Hwy 25 & 15
Sideroad) to the Limehouse Conservation Area. At either end of the hike are
side trails that can be followed to add variety to the hike.
From Speyside to 4th Line the trail goes though a mixed forest, passes over
rocky sections that are typical of the escarpment. Recent re-routes of the trail
have bypassed several swampy and muddy sections, but after a substantial rainfall
you should still be prepared to hike through or around some sticky areas. From
4th Line to the Limehouse the trail follows the edge of several farmer's fields.
