Itinerary:

So, trying out another brand new urban hike again today. This hike will take us through the parks and neighborhoods between Royal York & Old Mill Stations.

This route will be about 8 KM and will walk on a combination of park paths, hydro corridor trails and single trail trails, which could be covered in snow and ice.

This hike will be just under 8 KM. Biggest challenges include 1 relatively steep climb, there's a also a challenging decent into the Humber Valley. Also, could be windy in the hydro corridor, so please dress appropriately.
