HIKE FOR GELATO (and beer)

It's summer and what's more awesome than real Bolognese gelato?

Total distance will be 12 km and we will pick up the pace a little to 5.5 km/h so for sure you will have worked up an appetite. We'll start at Davisville Subway Station and from there our route will be

  1. South through Mount Pleasant cemetery and down the Beltline
  2. Loop through the Brickworks and continue south on the Don Recreational Trail to the Distillery district
  3. Detour for gelato
  4. Go for a pint along Front St.


Who knows what kind of weather we may get, so be prepared that this hike will go ahead unless there's a hurricane or tornado. Bring rain gear! If it starts to rain we will leave the ravines and head to a roadway. The trail may be muddy and wet in places so wear proper walking footwear. We will walk at a quicker pace of 5.5 km per hour along a paved path so be prepared to stick with the group. (No racing ahead as I won't be chasing after anyone who gets lost).

No Shows: If you can't make it please play fair and remove yourself from the event ASAP so the waiting list moves. Anyone cancelling after the cut off time will receive a No Show. Not liking the weather is no excuse :-)
