This hike is part of the End-to-End Series.  You are welcome to join in for a single hike or join the series.

This hike takes us along Beatty Lane into the small hamlet of Bewdley on Rice Lake.  Bewdley was first called “Black’s Landing” after William Black who built a tavern here in 1830.  It became a stop on the road from Port Hope to Peterborough Road and the Rice Lake Ferry.  By 1860 this town was a going concern with  a steam sawmill, shingle mill, blacksmith and three inns.  Following the lake we travel southbound along Cavan Road and then south along Gibbs Road.

Preparing for the Hike: Dress in layers, wear comfortable footwear, water and snacks.

Roadside Parking: Gibbs Rd and Donaldson Road West
