EVENT DETAILS

So, the random hike picker has suggested this hike for today.

This 13 KM hike will start at Greenwood Subway Station and go down to Queens Quay Streetcar Station.
Interesting spots include:

  • 'Monarch Park'.
  • 'Woodine Park'.
  • 'Cherry Beach'.
  • 'Queens Quay'.

    • This hike will be primarily be on wide paved trails or through neighborhoods.
    However, there will be one single track ravine section that might be tad wet and muddy.

    In terms of hills, the majority of this hike is either flat or downhill, so easy peesy, lemon squeezy.

    We'll do a washroom stop at about an hour into the hike in Woodbine Park.

    We'll aim for a pace of 4-5 km/h.

    PLEASE NOTE THAT LINE 1 IS CLOSED BETWEEN LAWRENCE & ST CLAIR THIS WEEKEND

    Post hike, if anyone is interested I might head over to Amsterdam BrewHouse for a pint/lunch if anyone wants to join.

    • How to Get There:
    Event Directions:

    Greenwood Station is located on the Bloor/Danforth Subway Line.

    Look for me in the BLUE Toronto Outdoor Club shirt at the entrance to the station.

    For those of you driving, Greenwood Station is not located on Greenwood, but one block east on Linnsmore Cresent, and just north of Danforth.
    In terms of parking, there should be some street parking in the neighborhood north of the station.
