🍂 Start in daylight. 🌙 End in the dark. Ah yes, fall on the @TCTrail. 😅 The views are spectacular, the air is crisp… and somehow sunset keeps sneaking up on us. Anyone else getting caught off guard by those early fall sunsets? 🙋 #TransCanadaTrail #FallOnTheTrail

Today is #WorldMentalHealthDay. Being active and spending time outdoors can support our well-being and access matters. 80% of people in Canada live within 30 minutes of a section of the @TCTrail. So today, make time for what makes you feel good and check in with those around you.

Well… nobody told the @TCTrail the Great Canadian Hike was over. 🍂😉 The leaves are still putting on a show, and there are plenty of reasons to get outside. Because it’s #NotJustATrail, it’s where ordinary days become adventures. See you out there! 🍁 #TransCanadaTrail
