Itinerary: | |||||||
This is a late summer urban hike along the
Discovery Walk of Garrison Creek, one of Toronto's
buried rivers.
The walk is approximately 9 km long with a walking time of about 2.5 hrs. (minimum) We'll be following the discovery walk (click here for pdf) until just after Fort York where we'll continue through Coronation Park. We'll then continue along the Waterfront Trail, make sure the detour again through Little Norway Park and Canoe Landing park (to see the giant canoe up close and personal), before ending at Union Station. This will be a slow hike. We'll be taking our time to take a look at things that catch our attention. There will be an option for people to drop out at the Bathrust streetcar loop if they'd like, which is about halfway. | |||||||
