Itinerary:

This Discovery Walk leads on a loop through the west Humber River valley, on a mixture of paved, hard-pack and grass trails. We will start at the Humberwood Community Centre. This delightful walk takes us through ornamental gardens, to an environmentally significant woodland, and along the West Humber River.

This will be a gentle walk for a Sunday afternoon - we will walk at a comfortable speed of about 3km/hr. The trail is 10km long, and will take us approximately 3 hours.

We'll head to Bert 'n Ernies fine establishment, near Kipling Station, for a drink and a bite to eat (dynamite wings!) after the walk.
