Itinerary:

This 10 KM hike will both start and finish at Old Mill Station.
We will walk through the twists and turns of the Swansea neighbourhood and I aim to hit every hill and set of stairs - so be warned!

However this isn't a fitness hike and we will walk at a moderate pace on a combination of paved park paths, neighbourhood sidewalks, single track dirt trails and grassy fields and will take rest breaks as needed.

I am planning a washroom/snack break about half way into the hike.

This time of year, please be prepared for muddy and icy conditions by bringing your icers.


Required Items to Bring:
  • Good shoes for walking
  • Icers
  • Water and a snack
  • Weather appropriate clothing
    		• Recommended Items to Bring:
