Day 1
If you are starting your adventure outside of the Bruce it is likely easiest to start your adventure in Teeswater (Passport Stop # 2). The box is located across from the Community Centre's main entrance.
From there, head east to trail B108. You should meet up with it at marker 363.
Head straight north on B108. The next Adventure Passport stop is at Sauble Falls Provincial Park (Passport Stop # 9).
From there continue north on B108 up to Stokes Bay or Lion's Head for the night.
We suggest that you stay at either Tamarac Island Inn in Stokes Bay, Taylor-Made Bed and Breakfast in Lion's Head or The Lion's Head Beach Motel to break up the ride, as it is a long trek up the Peninsula to Tobermory.
*Note: Lion's Head Lighthouse (Passport Stop #11)
Day 2
In the morning get back on the B108 and head all the way to the tip of the Peninsula to Tobermory. Stop in at the Parks Canada Visitor Centre (Passport Stop # 12) to get your passport punch, if you missed it on the way up. Note the Passport Box is located at the base of the lookout tower at the new Visitor Centre. Park your sled at the end of the B108 trail where it joins Head Street in Tobermory and walk back to the Visitor Centre. Take a break and enjoy lunch at the Princess Hotel.
In the afternoon, head back down trail B108 to Ferndale, where you will grab the B107 to head all the way to Wiarton. Make a pit stop at the Lion's Head Lighthouse (Passport Stop # 11) to get your punch. This is a big afternoon ride, you may want to stay in Wiarton at one of the following accommodators, Waterview on the Bay, Topnotch Motel, or the Shenstone Motel.

Day 3
Start your ride by visiting Bruce's Caves C.A. (Passport Stop # 10) to get your next Adventure Passport punch. At intersection 44 turn east onto the local trail and you'll come to the Caves.
Continue heading south at intersection 46, then west at intersection 126. There are several routes to choose from for your ride down to Chesley, where you can grab lunch and gas up. Why not try the Harley Blues Café in Scone? After lunch head west toward Paisley and intersection 303. Go south and you will find the Brant Tract trail system (Passport Stop #4). Your punch is in the warm-up shack.
Once you've got your final punch, finish the loop by heading back down to Teeswater. Continue south on this local trail to Dunkeld. Go south at intersection 309 to go through Walkerton. Continue south to Mildmay. At intersection 283, go east. Harley's Pub & Perk in Mildmay has the best butter tarts in Ontario!
Ride back to intersection 283 then go west at intersection 285. This will bring you back to B108. Head north and then west at intersection 363 and north at 364 to head back to home base in Teeswater.
