Itinerary:

We will meet at Warden Subway Station at the Warden Avenue entrance. If arriving by subway, please use the exit for Warden Avenue and wait outside near the doors. If parking in the parking lot (south lot), walk along Warden Avenue until you see the entrance; meet near the entrance doors.

We will begin the hike at Warden Station meandering through Warden Woods, through Donora Park, along the Taylor Creek Trail to the Lower Don River Trail and onto Broadview Avenue, turning left on Danforth Avenue. Total distance is approximately 12.5km. Once we reach Danforth Avenue, we'll head over to Factory Girl Pub, 193 Danforth Avenue, for some lunch and perhaps a brew or two. Upon conclusion, everyone can head to Broadview Station to either head home or head back to Warden Station to pick up their vehicle.

The majority of the walk will be on groomed paths and trails and will take place in parks, but there will be some time spent on major roads (Victoria Park and Broadview) so we'll be very careful on these busy streets. This walk is beginner friendly as long as you can walk 12.5km at a decent pace. We will stay together as a group, and the speed will be around 4.5-5km/hr. If we arrive early enough, we may be able to get sufficient space on the patio!
