Itinerary:

So, the random hike picker has selected this urban hike for this evening.

This 8.5 KM hike will travel between St. Clair & Broadview Station

The hike will be on a combination of sidewalks, single track dirt trails and wide paved park paths.

In terms of hills, there should be one large 50 meter climb near the end of the hike.

Sadly, the city hasn't installed any washrooms in this part of the city.

Post hike, if anyone's interested, I might head over for a post hike pint, maybe on a patio, if anyone would like to join.

PLEASE NOTE THAT THIS HIKE IS STARTING EARLIER THAN NORMAL AT 7 PM TO CLEAR THE CEMETERY BEFORE IT CLOSES

PLEASE NOTE THAT THERE IS A CLOSURE ON LINE 2 BETWEEN KIPLING & KEELE STATION AT 11 PM TONIGHT
