Killarney Backpacking Adventure
|
SLIDE 1 Located approximately five hundred kilometers north of Toronto Ontario, near the town of Sudbury, Killarney Provincial Park is a jewel of a park. The hillsides are covered in either incredible pink granite in the south or unbelievably white quartzite in the north. The main trail at Killarney Provincial Park is a 103 km loop known as the La Cloche Silhouette Trail. In 2004, 3 kms were added around H8, to bypass a bridge. You can travel in either direction around the loop but most backpackers travel in the clockwise direction, as in this photo hike. I believe this to be the best choice for several reasons. From what I have experienced on the screed and talus covered slopes on the north ridges, I would not want to do certain slopes in the counter clockwise direction because of safety considerations. |
