Itinerary:

So, there' s a trail that been bugging me in High Park for a few years that I want to try for the first time today.

This 6.5 KM hike will start at High Park Station and end at Keele Station and will take the new trail.

The hike will be on a combination of sdiewalks, paved park paths, wide gravel trails and single track trails.

In terms of hills, there should be about 2 of around 25 meters.

I'll stop for a washroom near the beginning of the hike and about 5 KM into the hike to give options.

Hiking boots / hiking shoes

Water

How to Get There:

Event Directions:

We'll meet at the High Park Avenue exit of High Park Station within the bus terminal.
High Park Station is located on Line 2, Bloor-Danforth, 1 stop west of Keele & 2 stops east of Jane.

For those exiting the subway, just take the exit from the far east side of the platform.
If you do not know where the east side of the platform is, follow the direction of the eastbound train.

For those driving, High Park Station's address at 35 Quebec Avenue, however presently cannot be accessed from Quebec Avenue.
So you'd have to go around via Bloor and north on High Park Avenue to access the station.
Quebec Avenue has free street parking on one side of the street depending on the time of the month.
There is free street parking on the west side of Pacific Drive and the east side of Oakmount Drive, both streets are just west of High Park Avenue.
