Let's hike part of the Waterville segment of the Ice Age Trail. This segment is an out and back hike for a little over 4 miles. The trail consists of a variety of terrain including multiple boardwalks that have been recently constructed. There is a nice view from an exposed section of Niagara Escarpment dolomite bedrock on the trail. The hike will begin at 10:30 am at the intersection of Waterville Road and Manor House Rd. After returning back to our parked cars, an additional option will be to drive a short way to the Wildlife in Need Center and then hike the recently constructed north part of the trail along Waterville Road for about 1 mile before returning the same way.
