So, the random hike picker has selected this urban hike for today. This 10 KM KM hike will both start and finish at Chaplin Station, located on the Eglinton Crosstown. The hike will be on a combination of wide gravel trails, sidewalks, paved park paths and single track trails. In terms of hills, there should be one climb of 25 meters. I'll attempt to stop for a washroom break at Phil White Arena located about 3.5 KM into the hike. I usually carry a pair of icers
with me from
the first snowfall of the year until
the end of
April, so I recommend having a pair in
your pack
to deal with any potential ice.
Post hike, if anyone's interest I might head over to the The Abbot on Eglinton pub for a pint if anyone would like to join. This brings me to the end of my 2026 hikes - thanks to everyone who participated this year. | |||||||
