Itinerary:

So, it's family day and there's nothing better than going for a hike and a pint. I've also got this crazy challenge, where I'm trying to go to 52 of the more interesting pubs in city.

This is a brand new route, but admittedly, this is not the most exciting route of all time, because we spend a lot of time on roads, rather than trails.

However it will end at a pub which has a selection of over 60 types of beer, which I find exciting.

Distance will be about 9 KM and we'll do a pace of 4.5-5.0 km/h, with I believe one hill.

The start of the hike is at Main Street Station and the pub is very close to Coxwell Station.

WARNING: Try to bring a good jacket, because it could be quite windy walking beside the lake.

Anyone who signs up for this hike, must be willing to come and socialize at the pub primarily:

  • 1. Because, you could be taking a spot away from someone on the wait list who otherwise wanted to attend.
  • 2. Also because I have a reservation and they are expecting a certain amount of people.

    Otherwise, I hope you come and have fun.


    • Required Items to Bring:
  • Good footwear - I usually say hiking boots or shoes are a good idea
  • Water 1-2 L and snacks
  • Weather appropriate clothing
    		• Recommended Items to Bring:
    Use our Event Checklists to make sure you have everything you need.
  • A smile.
  • Icers, otherwise known as traction devices

    • How to Get There:
    Event Directions:

    Main Street Subway Station is located on the eastern side of the Bloor/Danforth subway line.

    Meet near the collectors booth.
