Itinerary:

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

This 6.5 KM hike will start at Dundas West Station and end at Runnymede Station.

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

In terms of hills, there should be a long 50 meter flight of stairs near the end of the hike.

I'll attempt to stop for a washroom break 3.5 KM into the hike in High Park.

PLEASE NOTE THAT THERE IS A EARLY SUBWAY CLOSURE BETWEEN ST CLAIR WEST AND SHEPPARD WEST STATION STARTING AT 11 PM TONIGHT

    Event Directions:

    We'll meet outside the Entrance to Dundas West Subway station on the Bloor Line, which is located 6 stations west of St. George Station & 8 east of Kipling Station. If raining or cold, I'll be just inside the station doors.

    If driving, the station entrance is located on the North-West side of Bloor/Dundas (on Dundas).
    There's a parking lot located one block west of Dundas, just north of Bloor on Dorval Road.
