This loop trail commences with the parking of your car at a parking lot on Prince of Wales Rd at the beginning of the Prince of Wales Side Trail. The parking lot is 80 metres south of the start of this side trail. Take the blue blazed trail north from the north or west side of the road.
When you reach an intersection with the Primrose Side Trail, turn left and follow this blue blazed trail in a clockwise direction.
You will come to an intersection which, if you turn left, will take you to the main Bruce Trail. Save this for another time, and instead, keep walking south.
Following this 3 km loop will bring you back to the intersection with the Prince of Wales Side Trail. Turn left and follow the side trail back to your parked car.
