Event Directions: |
If coming by transit, allow lots of time. Last time I started an event from this location, a few people were very late, and of course we were long gone by the time they arrived. BY TRANSIT: Take the 54A Bus from Lawrence East RT Station or Eglinton Station. It should take you one hour from Eglinton Station, or 30 minutes from Lawrence East Station. Alternately, you can take the 86D Scarborough Bus from Kennedy Station. It will take you about 25 minutes from Kennedy Station. Please note that the 86D bus only comes every 30 minutes! BY CAR: Park on a side street near the start of the hike. MAP OF STARTING LOCATION PICTURE OF STARTING LOCATION | ||||||
