Itinerary:

So, the random hike picker has selected this urban hike for this evening.

This 7.5 KM hike will both start and finish at St. Clair Station.

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

In terms of hills, there should be 2 climbs of 50 meters and 2 climbs of 25 meters.

Sadly, there really isn't any able washrooms on this route.
Typically, I run into the Starbucks, located on the north-east corner of St. Clair & Yonge.

Post hike, if anyone's interested, I'll head over to Union Social Eatery for a drink and a bite to eat, if anyone is interested in joining.
