Itinerary:

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

This 11 KM hike will start at Greenwood Station and end at Broadview Station.

The hike will be on a combination of alleyways, grassy fields, sidewalks, single track dirt trails and paved park paths.

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

I'll attempt to stop for a washroom break at Withrow Park, located about 8.5 KM into the hike.

Post hike, I'm willing to grab a drink at a local pub on the Danforth if anyone would like to join me.

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:

Hiking boots / hiking shoes

Weather appropriate clothing

Water

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

First Aid Kit

A smile

Whistle Icers or traction devices

How to Get There:

Event Directions:

Greenwood Station is located on the Bloor/Danforth Subway Line.

Look for me in the BLUE Toronto Outdoor Club shirt at the entrance to the station.

For those of you driving, Greenwood Station is not located on Greenwood, but one block east on Linnsmore Crescent, and just north of Danforth.
In terms of parking, there should be some street parking in the neighborhood north of the station.
