ABOUT THE HIKE
This is a new hike for the TOC. I have checked all past events and none have been in Unionville!
I have hiked only a few km of the route so we will be exploring most of it together on event day, so expect the unexpected!
The trail is quite flat, paved and gravel, maybe a few dirt sections.
We will go thru some heavily forested areas, neighbourhood parks, over wooden bridges and walkways, around ponds, under railway bridges etc.

MAX hikers: about 12 (+ or -)
Maximum Group Size is set at 4, because I can take 3 passengers, but this event can accommodate about 12 hikers.

CARPOOL DRIVERS, WHEN YOU SIGN UP, PLEASE ANSWER THE CARPOOL QUESTION REGARDING THE # OF PASSENGERS YOU CAN TAKE IN YOUR CAR!!!

Members on the waiting list who are willing to drive, and have a good attendance record, may get first priority.
Passengers will be added as drivers become available.
Alternatively, you can meet us at the hike trail head.
