Itinerary:

I went on a hike back in the winter that I really enjoyed .. other than the fact that it was about -25C and pitch black that night. I thought it would be interesting to see how the trail compares now that it is no longer winter.

The hike will start at Eglinton West Subway Station. From there we will head east on the Beltline Trail until we hit Mt. Pleasant Rd. We will turn south, head east on Moore Ave, and pick up the trail again. Then we will follow the trail in a roughly clock wise loop through some ravines and end at St Clair Subway Station.

The route is about 11.5km long and we will be hiking at a moderate pace of 4.5-5.0km/h with a few short breaks. I expect the hike will take about 2.5 hours. Most of the trails are dirt or gravel, so I would suggest some good hiking shoes. The route is mostly flat, however there are a few hills including one rather large one towards the end. Due to construction on part of the Beltline trail we may have to take a detour which will add a bit of distance, but not too much.

Please plan to arrive before the posted start time as we will be leaving immediately at 7pm.

Required Items to Bring:
Good hiking shoes/boots
Weather appropriate clothing
1 - 2 L water

Recommended Items to Bring:
Use our Event Checklists to make sure you have everything you need.
Snacks for the trail
Flashlight/Headlamp

Unbridled enthusiasm

How to Get There:

Event Directions:

Eglinton West Subway Station is on the University-Spadina Subway Line (also known as Line 1) at the corner of Eglinton Ave W and Allen Rd.

I will be at the main entrance inside the doors near the turnstiles. Look for me with a black backpack and a Blue Jays cap.
