Itinerary:

So, a few weeks ago Rupak asked me to choose a subway station for him to lead a hike out of.
To be funny, I first said Bessarion, but then I corrected myself saying I should make it really hard on him and I chose Osgoode.
Well that weekend, he ended up doing Old Mill Station, but I've decided to put my money where my mouth is and try a hike out of Osgoode Station just for shits and giggles.

This 7.5 KM hike will travel between Osgoode & Christie Station.

The hike will be on a combination of sidewalks and paved park paths.

In terms of hills, there shouldn't be any over 25 meters.

I'll stop for a washroom break in Trinity Bellwoods Park about 3.5 KM into the hike.

Post hike, I might head over for some Korean food, if you'd like to join me.

PLEASE NOTE THAT THERE IS A SUBWAY CLOSURE BETWEEN WARDEN & KENNEDY STATION THIS WEEKEND
