Itinerary:

Its Labour Day weekend, so I thought I might as well lead a hike for a pint over to one of my favorite beer / pizza pubs.

This 5 KM hike will start from Dundas West Station Station and with end at The Greater Good Pub
Located at 229 Geary Avenue located near the corner of Dufferin & Dupont and about 15 minute walk to Dufferin Station.

The hike will be on a combination of sidewalks, single track dirt trails and grassy fields.

Please be advised that this hike is ending at the pub, not at a subway station.
So, its up to you to make your way back.

'Here's the link to the draft menu at the pub'.

Please note that the only food options they have is absolutely amazing pizza.

I can stop for a washroom break about 3.5 KM into the hike in Earlscourt Park.

    Event Directions:

    We'll meet outside the Entrance to Dundas West Subway station on the Bloor Line, which is located 6 stations west of St. George Station & 8 east of Kipling Station. If raining or cold, I'll be just inside the station doors.

    If driving, the station entrance is located on the North-West side of Bloor/Dundas (on Dundas).
    There's a parking lot located one block west of Dundas, just north of Bloor on Dorval Road.
