Come join us for an adventure along Spencer Creek to the base of Webster's Falls in Hamilton.

This route is technical and difficult. This hike is open to women only.

Generally considered a difficult route with uneven terrain, the trail will be narrow, and at times muddy and slippery and involves some inclines.

It is approximately 5 km in length and will take about 2 hours to complete. We will follow the creek to the base of the falls and head back the way we came.

We will meet at Fisher Mills Park
370 King St W, Dundas, ON L9H 1W7

There is parking available near the trailhead along Fisher's Mill Park.

Bring snacks and water.

See you at the park.

We will meet in the first parking lot by the welcome centre.

Forest Bathing, also known as Forest Therapy, is a gentle nature based practice that supports relaxation, stress reduction, and a deeper connection with the natural world. Through a series of guided invitations, we will slow down, engage our senses, and experience the forest in a way that is often missed in our busy lives.

There is no destination, no fitness level required, and no experience necessary.

We will move slowly, covering only a short distance as we explore the forest with curiosity and presence.
Research has shown that spending mindful time in nature can help reduce stress, support emotional well being, improve mood, and foster a greater sense of connection to ourselves, to others, and to the land.

Please dress for the weather and bring water and something comfortable to sit on, such as a blanket, sit pad, or small folding chair.

Come exactly as you are. The forest asks nothing of you except your presence.
