After parking your car on the Clearview/Osprey Town Line, near Eagle Cr, access the main Bruce Trail on the east side of the road via a short access trail. Head north on the white blazed main trail. After about 400 metres is the intersection with the Standing Rock and Caves Side Trail.
Turning left onto this side trail will take you down the escarpment through slippery crevices to a standing rock pillar. Here the blue blazed trail heads east. At a stream it turns left and rejoins the main Bruce Trail.
Turn right onto the main trail and follow the white blazes back to the access trail and your parked car.
This loop trail falls within the Blue Mountains section of the Bruce Trail. For more information on other loop and side trails and the portion of the main Bruce Trail in this section please visit the Blue Mountains Bruce Trail Club’s website at http://www.bmbtc.org/
For more information on this and other portions of the Bruce Trail please purchase the Bruce Trail Maps from the Bruce Trail Conservancy at https://brucetrail.org/product-category/downloadable-maps/
