For the lovers of silence, stillness and early morning sunshine. We will meet before dawn (bring a flashlight just in case!) and savour the silence and sounds of early morning as we take a short and quiet hike to our look‐out destination on this private property shared with Hike Haliburton  . We will watch  the sunrise and morning arrive in the valley. To celebrate the start of the new day we will enjoy some deep morning breaths and gentle stretches, followed by fresh coffee and tea in our hilltop ‘Lotus Belle Cafe’. Bring a notebook and pen in case you feel inspired to write a poem or sketch the scenery. After everyone is more fully awake we will have time to hike another 1.5kms of trail through a mixed forest of pine, oaks and maples, eventually making our way back to the meeting point. Suitable for adults and teens 12+. No dogs please.
