Itinerary:

So, today I'm coming off a day of being beaten up by a man.
So, I'm just looking for a nice pleasant walk.
First thing that came to mind was errr Mount Pleasant Cemetery.

This 8 KM hike will both start and finish at Davisville Station.

The hike will be on a combination of paved park paths, gravel paths and cemetery roads.

In terms of hills, there should be none over 25 meters.

Sadly, there won't be any washroom on the hike.
I typically just run into the Tim Hortons located across the street from the start point.

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 ON AMAZON'.

    • How to Get There:
    Event Directions:

    Davisville Station is located on the Yonge Subway Line, 1 stop south of Eglinton Station and 4 stops north of Bloor.

    The subway station exit is located on the south west corner at Yonge & Davisville/Chaplin.

    We'll meet just outside the station.
    If its cold or wet or if I'm feeling lazy, then I'll just be inside the station doors, probably sitting on the heating vent.

    Look for me in the BLUE Toronto Outdoor Club shirt.
