Itinerary:

So, we're getting close to the holiday season, so I figure I'd take folks down to the Distillery Winter Village.

So, I'm just going to do a relatively short and easy hike to get us down there.

The winter village is free between Noon and 4 PM, so we'll aim to get there before it opens.
I'm expecting it to already be pretty busy once we get down there.

This 4 KM hike will start at Broadview Station and end at the Cherry Street entrance to the Distillery District.

The hike will be on a combination of paved paths, a potentially muddy field, sidewalks and a few dirt trails.

I'll attempt to stop for a washroom break at the Riverdale East washrooms, located about 1.5 KM into the hike.

    • How to Get There:
    Event Directions:

    Broadview Station is located on the Bloor/Danforth Subway Line. It is three stops east of Bloor/Yonge station.

    For those of you driving, Broadview Station is located on the east side of Broadview Avenue, just north of Danforth.
    Address is 769 Broadview Avenue
    In terms of parking, there's a Green P lot located one block north of the station on Erindale Avenue.

    We'll meet near the only entrance to the station. Look for me in the BLUE Toronto Outdoor Club shirt,
    If its dry, most likely I'll be just beside the station entrance on the side of the streetcar tacks.
    If its wet, I'll probably just be inside the station entrance.
