Itinerary:

Welcome to my Hike For A Pint Series, where we'll be walking to either a brewery or interesting pub in the city.
The group size will be capped based on either reservation size or however many people I think I can get into a location.

You must be 19 or older to sign up for this hike.

Today's 9 KM hike will traverse between Keele Station to a mystery pub near the corner of Bathurst & Dundas.

If you register for this event, I'm going to ask that you come to the pub because:

1. you could be taking a spot away from someone on the wait list who otherwise wanted to attend.

2. Also because I could have a reservation and they are expecting a certain amount of people.

This hike will be on a combination of dirt trails, paved park paths & sidewalks.

In terms of hills, there are about 3 annoying stair climbs.

We'll stop for a washroom about 3 KM into the hike.

I usually carry a pair of icers with me from the first snowfall of the year until the end of April, so I recommend having a pair in your pack to deal with any potential ice.
You can find the pair I use, 'here from Amazon'.

Required Items to Bring:

Hiking boots or hiking shoes

Water 1-2 L and snacks

Weather appropriate clothing

Money for the pub

Recommended Items to Bring:
Use our Event Checklists to make sure you have everything you need.

A smile

First Aid Kit

Whistle

Icers or traction devices

$20 for your 2023 TOC Badge

How to Get There:

Event Directions:

Keele Subway Station is located on the Bloor-Danforth line (Line 2), one stop west of Dundas West and 7 stops east of Kipling.

We'll meet outside the Keele Entrance to the Station.
If raining or cold, I'll just be inside the station doors.

Look for me in the BLUE Toronto Outdoor Club shirt,

For those of you driving, Keele Station is located on the north-east side of Bloor & Keele.
In terms of parking, there's a TTC lot, one traffic light east of Keele and just a bit north, which is free on weekends.
