Posted at 7:58 pm | Filed Under Hikes
Nastawgan Trails is holding its 5th annual end to end hike on the Ottawa - Temiskaming Highland Trail from May 4th to 12th. We are looking for participants who would like to join us on our journey along this magnificent trail. The trip, from Ottertail Creek at Lake Temiskaming to the Town of Latchford on Hwy #11, is about 100 km in length. The trail is rugged but clear, well marked and signed. Participants must be self contained, experienced backpackers in good physical condition; able to handle steep grades and elevation changes up to 600 ft. There are no bridges or walkways and streams must be forded. We will be arranging for a food cache at about day 6. There are pdf preview maps and gpx trail tracks available at nastawgantrails.org (click ‘Area Trails’, click GPS at top of page). The guide book, Discovering Wild Temiskaming, by hike leaders Murray & Vicky Muir is available at MEC Toronto, local Temagami area outfitters and book stores or by contacting the Muirs.
