Come Walk With Us on the Trans Canada Trail (TCT)

This blog describes our upcoming 24,000 km hike across Canada on the Great Trail (formerly the Trans Canada Trail ).  We will begin hiking in Cape Spear, Newfoundland in June 2016, walk west towards Victoria, British Columbia, and then paddling north from Fort Saskatchewan, Alberta to Tuktoyaktuk, Northwest Territories. This blog will describe our planning, gear, and once we are underway, the experiences we have along the trail.  We invite you to 'Come Walk With Us' and hope you enjoy the journey!

If you are interested in the first part of the Great Trail on the Atlantic Coast check out our trek along the East Coast Trail in 2018 (now officially part of the Trans Canada Trail system).
