This is Kelly's first event, so please direct your questions to her. We'll start at Chester Subway Station and head to the Don Valley. We'll take the Don Valley Trail north to Crothers Woods, walk through the Neighborhood of Bennington Heights & then take the Moore Ravine down to the Brickworks Farmer's Market (about an hour and a half hike). We'll spend an hour exploring the farmer's market before finishing our journey following the path back through the ravine out to Castle Frank Station (about half an hour). For anyone who wants to drop out at the Brickworks, there's a free bus shuttle back to Broadview or you can take the TTC bus to Davisville. The Brickworks Farmer's Market is open from 8:00am to 1:00pm on Saturdays, below is the link to their website with more details: http://www.evergreen.ca/get-involved/evergreen-brick-works/farmers-market/ Total distance for this hike is 9 KM and the total time for this hike, including the hour we'll spend at the Farmer's Market, will be around 3 hours. We will be hiking at a pace of 4.5 km. While dogs are allowed on this hike they are not allowed in the farmer's market food area while we are there. This hike will run rain or shine (barring no thunder/ lightning :) ) | |||||||
