Itinerary:

Urban hikes seem to be quite popular with the TOC, so here's s'more!

We'll be starting at York Mills Station, and ending at Sheppard Station, so the TTC might be The Better Way to arrive and leave.

We'll be walking at a nice brisk pace of 4.5-5.5 km/hr. Faster, if possible, but we operate on the principle of No Hiker Left Behind! Total distance is about 10 KM.

In an effort to remain calorie-neutral, there will be a S'MORE BREAK! during the hike. When exactly? Join us and find out! All fixings will be provided.


Required Items to Bring:
  • Required items to bring: flashlight (very important!
  • Sturdy-soled boots or shoes;
  • Water (1-l.5 L suggested);
  • Warm clothes, as it will likely be quite chilly in the evening;
  • An adventurous spirit.
