A MUST-DO Adventure
From September 16 to 20, 2020, "Shake your boot-eh" in the Haliburton Highlands
The Haliburton Highlands beg to be explored on foot so it makes perfect sense that the region is home to CANADA’S LARGEST and MOST INTERESTING hiking festival.
From September 16 to 20, 2020, the Hike Haliburton festival offers over 90 guided themed hikes for all ages, interests and abilities plus entertainment and local foods. Most hikes are FREE but registration is required as space is limited.
Choose from easy (1 to 3 hour) ambles, moderate (2 to 3 hour) hikes and challenging (2 to 7 hour) treks that are fun and informative.
Enjoy amazing entertainment and the BIGGEST PICNIC EVER.
