π¨π¦ Hidden Gem Trail in Richmond Hill - Perfect Summer Escape! π²π¦
π Oak Ridges Trail / Bond Lake Trail (Just north of RH - multiple connecting trails) We chose Bond Lake Trail for its lakeside path - and it delivered BIG TIME! π Parking Warning: VERY limited parking! On Canada Day, we followed locals and parked roadside (not ideal but worked). πΏ Why This Trail Rocks: β’ Lush forests + sparkling blue lake combo π³π β’ Actual elevation changes (Finally! Not just flat walks) β’ ~1.5 hour loop around the lake β’ Peaceful - no crowds even on holidays! π£ Summer Vibes: Saw people fishing, swimming, boating and camping - almost jumped in myself! Brought back Muskoka summer memories πββοΈ π§Ί Perfect For: β’ Nature meditation β’ Picnics with friends β’ Proper "hiking" feel (rare in Toronto!) #HikingToronto #NatureEscapes #WeekendAdventures #ExploreOntario #LakeLife #TrailRunning #OutdoorCanada
