We will be following the old Belt Line

There is no major difficulty in the terrain, just a couple of hills, but we will be hiking in a easy pace.

The hike is about 16 km overall and we will aim to hike at 3.5-4km/h.

We will follow this path:

Go under the CN rail bridge
Turn left at first street (MacPherson Ave) to Poplar Plains Rd.
Follow raod to the Russel Hill Reservation, which turns into Winston Churchill Park.

From Eglinton West, follow the Belt Line
Pass beside the Mount Pleasant Cemetery
Follow the Moore Ravine south to the brickworks
45 Min Break at farmers' market
Follow the Vale of Avoca ravine north
Arrive at St. Clair Subway Station / Summerhill or Rosedale Station.

We will stop at the new brickworks farmers market for 20-30 minutes and check out what the vendors have to offer. After our shopping is complete, we will continue to follow the ravine back up towards St. Clair / Summerhill / Rosedale Station. (YOUR CHOICE)

There are several points to drop off the hike, if you choose to do so.
