COOKIE MONSTER NIGHT HIKE: Union to High Park

This is a pretty flat hike, starting at Union Station and ending at Jane Station. There's only a slight uphill as we go past Grenadier Pond. We'll meet outside on York Street, south of Union Station outside the Longos From there we'll follow this route:
  1. South along York to the waterfront trail (Queen's Quay) and from there west to High Park
  2. North through High Park, going past Grenadier Pond
  3. Detour for yummy straight-out-of-the-oven COOKIES!!
  4. End at Jane Station

Total Distance Covered 10 KM. Dogs are welcome.

DIFFICULTY: We will walk at a decent pace of 5.0-5.5 km per hour so be prepared to stick with the group. (No racing ahead as I won't be chasing after anyone who gets lost).

NO SHOWS: If you can't make it please play fair and remove yourself from the event ASAP so the waiting list moves. Anyone cancelling after the cut off time will receive a No Show. Note: I'm pretty happy hiking in rain; if that's not for you, remember to check the forecast the day before and if necessary remove yourself in time.
