Did you just finish Matt's event: Hike For A Slice IX?
Do you need to hike after eating that huge, delicious slice of pizza?
ya, me too.

This will be a moderately paced hike along a mix of paved, gravel and dirt paths with a few small hills,
There may be some muddy, snowy and icy sections.

This is the route we will take.

  • Start at College and Yonge
  • just follow the hiker in front of you (or peruse the map above, or continue reading)
  • head over to Riverdale Farm
  • take the Lower Don River Trail north to...
  • the Brick Works for a short break
  • get on the Beltline
  • head north thru David A Balfour Park
  • end at Davisville subway station
    • I will probably walk 1 km north on Yonge to get a Chipotle burrito. you can join me if you like.
    • it will be more than 3 hrs since eating pizza on Matt's event!
    • and I will, no doubt, be famished
