Okay, technically, this isn’t in Milton. Still, it is part of the Halton Conservation Parks, so I’m not going to quibble on this technicality. I love Mount Nemo for its fantastic views and challenging – yet doable – hiking paths.
Trails at Mount Nemo

There are three paths you can take; all rated a 2 because they do involve some short slopes. But no matter where you begin from the Guelph Line parking lot, you will enter using the North Loop Trail (Orange). This trail will take you along the escarpment and Brock Harris Lookout.
The lookout is a great spot to catch some Turkey Vultures flying around and stunning views. On a clear day, you may see the Toronto skyline. You can either loop back to the parking lot from the lookout or continue using the South Loop Trail (Yellow).
The South Loop Trail runs mainly along the escarpment. Still, it will either loop back to connect with the North Loop or continue along the Escarpment Edge Trail (Green). This last trail leads down to the other parking lot, along Walker’s Line.
These hiking trails are best suited for active people, including children. I wouldn’t recommend bringing a stroller as there are a lot of roots and rocks to go over. Unless you want to have to lift the entire stroller with your partner – ahem, it was our first time visiting this park – I’d leave it at home.
Oh, and if you decide to come in the winter, you need to bring some good hiking boots or something with a good grip. It gets very icy. That said, it can be pretty breathtaking when covered with a snowy white blanket. Mount Nemo is definitely worth the hike for me.
