The RRA Hike Club is a great way to experience Greater Sudbury trails in a fun, safe and friendly environment. Led by an experienced hiker, different trails are selected for each hike to help you discover Greater Sudbury's trail network. Hikes typically run the first Saturday of each month and are free of charge. The location and flavour of each hike changes month to month and is dependent on seasons, hike leaders, and... well, whichever way the volunteer team takes it!
To help us run smooth events, online registration and waivers are required by each participant for each hike. By registering, you'll receive a reminder email the day before, and/or be notified of any last minute changes or cancelations. Hikes run in all but the very worst of weather so please come prepared with proper footwear and clothing.
We typically share details about future hikes one to two weeks in advance on our homepage, Facebook, and Instagram. We send email newsletter reminders when possible.
Rainbow Routes Association is your community organization dedicated to leading trail development and promotion in Greater Sudbury. Our initiatives and events are free for everyone to enjoy. Please support us by purchasing a membership or making a donation!
