Wilderness Hike & Swim at Limberlost

Limberlost doesn't show up on most people's radar, and that's exactly why we go.
Limberlost Forest and Wildlife Reserve is one of those places that doesn't get the attention it deserves. The trail winds through old-growth hemlock and yellow birch trees, traces along lakeside boardwalks, and brings you out to a serene wilderness swimming spot. The terrain changes significantly based on what part of the trail you are on. Be sure to bring proper footwear!
One of the coolest parts of the hike is getting to see the raw beauty of the Canadian Shield up close. We'll stop at several lookout points where you can take in the incredible panoramic views of the surrounding wilderness.
After 10km on the trail, we wrap up the day the right way: at the beach. Bring a towel and plan to get in. The water in this part of Muskoka is clear and cold, and after a few hours in the sun, it's exactly what you want.
Highlights
Wilderness Exploration: Few crowds, no noise, just forest that feels genuinely off the beaten path.
Sweet Beach Finish: We end at the water. Swim, dry off, and decompress before the drive home - it's a hard routine to argue with.
Stunning Views: Enjoy wild views of the iconic Canadian Shield at the many lookout points along this hike.
Event cost: $60+HST (for explorer members) - $50 optional transport available.

About Wilderness Union
Wilderness Union is deliberate about building an outdoors community that connects you to the life-changing magic of the outdoors and helps you find your people.
Members range from 20-40 years old. The group is a mix of GTA locals and newcomers to Toronto from within Canada and abroad.
Attendance numbers on Meetup don't reflect our actual event attendance - we typically have 15-20 community members at each event. Large enough that there's someone new to meet but small enough that it's not overwhelming!
