Itinerary:

I've been getting requests to run a High Park event, so here we go.

We will start in the north part of High Park (Bloor st) and we will hike around the grenadier Pond.

Then back north along Colbourne Lodge Dr. to the top of High Park. Then we'll take the far eastern route south again until we reach the Boardwalk.

We will continue to the west through Western Beaches until Humber River Bridge.

Upon crossing the bridge, we will be exploring the Humber River trail. This hike is a combination of two discovery walks: Western Ravines and Beaches with Humber River, Old Mill and Marshes. We will be ending in Old Mill subway station.

The Hike is approximately 10.8 KM, so I would like to hike this relatively fast. If you are to join us please note, we plan on walking 4-4.5 km per hour.

Required Items to Bring:

Good hiking shoes
Water
Flashlight or headlight
