Hiking Training

Program area

Practical training with a clear community purpose.

Physical fitness and hiking are an integral part of Progress Peel. Physical fitness training is done during almost every training session and hiking is done during the Saturday training sessions.

At least once per month, Progress Peel participates in a long distance hike on the Bruce Trail. The goal is to complete the entire Bruce Trail once every four years. Hiking is also a mental fitness activity where students learn to push themselves to achieve goals and build self-confidence.
