Itinerary:

Its Boxing Day, so instead of waiting in line at the mall, I thought I might as well lead a hike for a pint over to one of my favorite pubs.

This hike will travel 6.5 KM between Main Street Station and The Only Pub (which is close to Donlands Station).

The hike will be on a combination of sidewalks, paved park paths and single track trails.

As its Boxing Day, I'm not expecting any washrooms to be open - sorry (short hike)

In terms of hills, there will be a 25 meter climb out of a ravine.

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 some of the beers they carry at the pub'.

Please be advised that this location is limited on food options, but they do permit you to bring your own in
I typically order a pizza either from the Danforth Pizza House or North Of Brooklyn.

    Event Directions:

    Main Street Subway Station is located on the eastern side of the Bloor/Danforth subway line.

    We'll meet just outside the station. If it's cold or wet, I'll just be inside the station doors.

    For those driving, the subway entrance is located on Main Street, just north of Danforth on the east side.
