Itinerary:

So I promised my mother, I'd run a hike for her, so here we are Urban Hike, in my backyard. Do I hear a 'Best Christmas Gift Ever?' (Crosses fingers.)

We will meet up outside North York Subway Station, beside the Starbucks, on the west side of Yonge St.

The hike will go through York Cemetery as well as two neighborhoods, so there will be much paved walking.

However, we'll walk through the trails on the East side of the West Don River, which are single track, dirt (probably covered in snow and ice), so Hiking Shoes/Hiking Boots are recommended. Icers also always a good idea.

We will conclude our hike back at North York Centre subway station.

WARNING: I am currently recovering from a foot injury and will be wearing a brace, so this hike will go at a SLOWER pace.

TOTAL DISTANCE COVERED: 10 KM, with one decently challenging hill, just for fun :)

I currently do not have a working cell phone, so please if you need to contact me, send me a email

How to Get There:

Event Directions:

We'll meet outside the Starbucks at North York Centre Subway Station. The Starbucks is located on the west of Yonge St and on the north side of Mel Lastman Square and across the street from Empress Walk Mall.

For those driving, there's a parking lot on the North-East corner at Empress/Park Home and Yonge Street, which is three traffic lights north of Sheppard Ave. Then it's just a short walk to the Starbucks, which is located on the south-west side.

Look for me in a BLUE Toronto Outdoor Club t-shirt.
