the limestone Trail Challenge

The Grade 5/6 students of Central Public school are challenging the people of Kingston and the surrounding area to get outside and hit the trails this summer and fall!

Our class has created two trail lists: a shorter one just for kids and a longer version for adults or adventurous families. Track your hikes on our website as you go.

Challenge Rules

1. Hike all the trails on the list any time in 2025.  (Don't worry if you don't complete the whole thing. It still counts)

2.  Log your hike on our site. When you've hiked them all , fill out the "Finished" form to earn a special reward: our student-designed Limestone Trail Challenge sticker! Stickers will be awarded in November, at the end of the hiking season.  More info about that to follow in the fall.
