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. Each hike's location and flavor changes monthly based on the season, hike leaders, and the volunteer team!

It’s that time again for the annual Thanksgiving Walk in the Minnow Lake Oak Forest, a joint event between Rainbow Routes and the Minnow Lake Restoration Group.
