This morning promised to be a great day! No matter how long we live here the early morning views make for many a “skip a heartbeat” moments. I needed that after the busy two days that are behind me. On Wednesday morning I woke up to an inquiry for a snowshoe tour from David inContinue reading “Mid-winter Tour Day!”

Another busy Wednesday…
The regular walk in the morning… …followed by a snowshoe excursion in the afternoon. These are the things worth sharing. Just finished working on a proposal for five hours. Such tedious work without physical activity… and just like that another day is over! Good night, world!
And so it begins…
…my first tour registration for June 27th arrived via email on this snowy day today! Thanks @KeepYourDayDream for the opportunity to show you around the Parrsboro Shore area in June 2023.
Chasing the Light…
…all the way to the Redhead Look off. A perfect way to spend the afternoon on Groundhog Day! Wishing you all a wonderful weekend, Anna
Celebrating Imbolc: Clarke Head Hike
Imbolc commemorates the return of light. I decided on a solitary hike to one of my favourite destinations, the natural stone arch at Clarke Head. It had been exactly one month since I visited last and the changes along the beach were noticeable. Large rocks had been deposited that were not there before, erosion andContinue reading “Celebrating Imbolc: Clarke Head Hike”
Three Waterfalls Hike Event
It was a fabulous day to bring together a group of like-minded people! Together we explored Jeffers Falls, the Old Parrsboro Dam site and Hidden Falls. The sun pushed through the clouds and illuminated some of the most scenic stretches along the trails. Thanks to everyone who joined in.
Winter is here!
And I am doing the happy dance! Three Waterfalls Snowshoe Excursion is confirmed for tomorrow. Stay tuned for pictures of our first snowshoe session of the year!

Another Sunday, Another New Trail to Discover
There was a chill in the air but I had planned to check out a new trail as a possibility for my Wednesday hikers. My friend and I enjoyed the hike, we even found a way to make the original trail connect to create a loop. The terrain was steep, too steep for the variedContinue reading “Another Sunday, Another New Trail to Discover”
Parrsboro: Wednesday Winter Walks & Hikes
In January 2023 I started to offer free guided hikes following the Wednesday morning walks. There was always at least one interested hiker and we set about exploring together. As 2023 drew to a close I wasn’t sure if offering another three-months of guided hikes would be of interest. I couldn’t have been more wrong!Continue reading “Parrsboro: Wednesday Winter Walks & Hikes”
