EVENT DETAILS

So, the random hike picker has suggested this hike for today.

This 10.5 KM hike will traverse between Runnymede and Old Mill Station.

Today's hike will be on a combination of neighbourhood sidewalks, dirt trails, paved park paths and a boardwalk.

There's just one hill over 25 meters on the hike and naturally its right at the end of the walk.

We'll aim for a pace of 4-5 km/h.

We'll stop for a washroom break at about 45 minutes into the hike in High Park. There's weirdly a second option available also at the 1.5 hour mark of the hike. So, you'll have options.

PLEASE NOTE THAT LINE 1 IS CLOSED BETWEEN LAWRENCE & ST CLAIR STATION THIS WEEKEND
ALSO LINE 2 BETWEEN BROADVIEW STATION AND ST GEORGE STATION IS NOT OPENING UNTIL NOON ON SUNDAY MORNING
