Itinerary:

I took the day off work and I like to get the early bird breakfast at the Grenadier Restaurant in High Park on days like this. So let's go check it out after a short leisurely morning hike along a route that seems to be very popular these days.

We will meet at Old Mill station and follow this route:
- South along the Humber Trail to the waterfront
- East along the Waterfront Trail
- North through High Park to the Grenadier Restaurant
- Go for an early bird breakfast

Route Rundown:
Distance: I may adjust the route to ensure we get to the restaurant in time for the early bird, it will be between 6 - 7km.
Pace: A leisurely 4.0-4.5 km/h. Speed demons, please be prepared to dial it back
Expected Time: 1.5 - 2 hours + breakfast
Trails: Mostly paved trails and sidewalks with a few gravel sections.
Terrain: Fairly flat with some rolling sections and a set of stairs at the start. There might be a steep-ish hill depending on the route through High Park.

Breakfast is optional, but since you're there and it's reasonably priced, why not? The Grenadier Restaurant's menu can be found here, note the early bird options (although you are free to get whatever you wish).

Please plan to arrive before the posted start time, we will be leaving immediately at 8:30am. I will turn my phone off once we begin, so any calls or messages will likely not be returned until the end of the hike.

This hike will go forward rain or shine or snow. A high risk of a thunderstorm (80%+) in the forecast 24 hours prior to the event may result in postponement or cancellation.
