To be hiking leaders, participants should have some hiking experience and be able to participate in a low risk natural environment hike on a designated trail while carrying what they will need for the day outside. Participants must have the physical ability to hike on a footpath with rocks and roots, etc. Participants are required to read a manual beforehand. Participants who successfully meet the course outcomes will earn Outdoor Council of Canada Field Leader – Hiking certification along with the necessary skills to be a confident hiking leader in 3 seasons. Most of the instruction will be in the classroom with some experiential lessons on the trail.

Participants must attend the full 2 day -day course in order to receive certification. Registration includes a course manual and a one-year membership with the Outdoor Council of Canada (OCC members have access to many benefits). All participants must sign a waiver.
