Itinerary:

We will hike along the beautiful waterfront for about 8K hike in total. The unobstructed view of Late Ontario and the mouth of the Rouge River is awesome. We can also appreciate a variety of wetland, shoreline plants and maybe some animals.

This is a relatively easy hike with mostly paved surfaces. We will be walking at approximately 3km per hour and will be stopping for a lunch break half way.

We will meet at Rouge Hill Go Station (outside the ticket office). You can get there by taking the Go train at Union Station (hourly service departing at 8:13, 9:13, 10:13, etc, and the train ride takes about 45 minutes), or by TTC bus 85A (departing from Don Mills Subway Station and destination being Rouge Hill Go station, and the bus ride is roughly one hour). See below direction if you plan to get there by car.
