Itinerary:

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

This 6 KM hike will both start and finish at Scarborough Centre Station.

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

In terms of hills, the hike is pretty flat, with no climbs over 25 meters.

I'll attempt to stop for a washroom break at Thomson Memorial Park, located about 3.5 KM into the hike.
