Itinerary:

So, the random hike picker has selected this urban hike for today.

This 7 KM hike will start at Finch Station and end at Bessarion Subway Station.

The hike will be on a combination of sidewalks, paved park paths, grassy fields and single track dirt trails.

In terms of hills, there should be about 3 climbs of 25 meters, with the longest being 50 meters.

I'll attempt to stop for a washroom break at the Bayview Arena located 2.5 KM into the hike.
However, Finch Station also has washrooms inside the Regional Bus Terminal.
