The Bruce Trail is a footpath that follows the Niagara Escarpment.
Approximately 800 kilometres in length, it begins in Niagara and ends in Tobermory at the tip of the Bruce Peninsula (Ontario, Canada). It is built and maintained by volunteers who belong to nine different clubs within the Bruce Trail Association.
The Niagara Escarpment is the outer rim of an ancient inland sea which at one time covered the Michigan Basin. It is a unique area which contains a large variety of plant and wildlife. In 1990, the Niagara Escarpment was named a UNESCO World Biosphere Reserve.
