Itinerary:

This is an all day hike. Hope to be back by evening. Don't sign up if you need to be back by specific time.

This hike will take us up through the beautiful Hockley Valley Provincial Nature Reserve and into the Mono Cliffs Provincial Park. There will be a few steep ascents and descents...and depending on our Energy levels we may do some side trips within the Mono Cliffs Park. Hopefully the views will offer us some beautiful fall colours as a reward for all our efforts.

It will be a number of steep ascents and descents. There will be great lookouts, but there will be lots of hills.

The hiking pace will be approximately 3.5 km per hour, slower pace on the uphills. I am a SLOW hiker, making frequent stops to take photos :) Please be prepared to respect my style of hiking. Thanks.

We will hike as a group, and thus, wait as necessary for everyone, If you think you'll have uncontrollable urges to be constantly on the move or to sprint ahead, this is NOT an event for you. Speedsters will be put at the back of the line.

Please ensure you can hike the distance over the uneven and steep hilly terrain, in the summer heat and at the specified pace BEFORE you sign up.

This hike involves a car shuttle, hike will be modified or postponed if not enough drivers sign up. Also, additional participants will be added as space permits.

If you're travelling by TTC to the carpool location, you're responsible for taking into consideration any service disruptions, etc in order to arrive on time. Also note, we will meet at the Passenger Pick Up location that's off Subway Crescent (not any other place at Kipling station.. ask TTC staff if you're not sure and need direction.

BE PREPARED: We will hike as a group. Again, if you think you may be sprinting ahead... don't sign up! We will be hiking rain or shine.
