What we’re about
Welcome to the Grand Valley Trails Hiking Meetup group!
The Grand Valley Trails Association (GVTA) builds and maintains hiking trails in the Grand River valley. We promote year-round hiking, on the Grand Valley Trail and on other trails in the area. If you love exploring the outdoors through walking and hiking, then this is the group for you! We offer a variety of walks and hikes for outdoor enthusiasts of all experience levels. Guided hikes are organized several times a month and are posted on https://www.gvta.on.ca/HikesEvents.htm. The hikes are led by certified hike leaders with first aid training. Let’s lace up our boots, meet like-minded individuals, and hit the trails together!

Join Marie for a hike in Waterloo. The Forwell/Hillside Loop is a scenic 7 km trail that offers a peaceful retreat through urban nature. This easy, paved path runs alongside Forwell Creek and connects to the Hillside Trail, passing through a lush corridor of trees and wetlands. It's a popular spot for walking, running, and bird watching, with ample shade and benches along the way.
