EVENT DETAILS

So, I have to be downtown to meet a few friends today, so might as well do an urban hike to get there.

This 8.5 KM hike will traverse between Christie Station & Queens Quay Streetcar Station.

This hike will primarily be on paved park paths or sidewalks, with one concrete pier.

This hike is weirdly easy in terms of the amount of hills.
Primarily, we're walking downhill or on flat ground.

I'll stop for a washroom break about an hour into the hike in Coronation Park.
There's also a washroom located in Christie Pits across the street from the start point of the hike.

We'll aim for a pace of 4-5 km/h.

PLEASE NOTE THAT LINE 2 IS CLOSED BETWEEN OSSINGTON & JANE STATION THIS WEEKEND
