Itinerary:

So, the random hike picker has selected this urban hike for this evening.

This 13.5 KM hike will start at Dundas West Station and end at Old Mill Station.

The hike will be on a combination of paved multi use trails, neighbourhood sidewalks and grassy fields (which will probably just be covered in snow/ice)

In terms of hills, there should be about 3 climbs of about 25 meters.

I'll attempt to stop for a washroom break at Joseph J. Piccininni Community Recreation Centre located about 3 KM into the hike.

I usually carry a pair of icers with me from the first snowfall of the year until the end of April, so I recommend having a pair in your pack to deal with any potential ice.
You can find the pair I use, 'HERE ON AMAZON'.

Required Items to Bring:

Flashlight / Headlight

Hiking boots / hiking shoes

Weather appropriate clothing

Water

Recommended Items to Bring:
Use our Event Checklists to make sure you have everything you need.

A smile

Whistle

Icers or traction devices

How to Get There:

Event Directions:

We'll meet outside the Entrance to Dundas West Subway station on the Bloor Line, which is located 6 stations west of St. George Station & 8 east of Kipling Station. If raining or cold, I'll be just inside the station doors.

If driving, the station entrance is located on the North-West side of Bloor/Dundas (on Dundas).
There's a parking lot located one block west of Dundas, just north of Bloor on Dorval Road.
