Itinerary:

So, the random hike picker has selected tonight's hike as a 13 KM route from Davisville Staiton to King Station.

This hike will be on a combination of paved park paths, neighborhood sidewalks, gravel/dirt paths and a decommissioned railway track, all of which could potentially be covered in snow and ice. So, a little bit of everything.

Overall, there aren't really many challenging hills on this route.

Sadly, there isn't really any washroom options on this route.

I usually carry a pair of icers with me from the first snowfall of the year until the end of April, so I recommend having a pair in your pack to deal with any potential ice. You can find the pair I use, 'here from Amazon'.

    Event Directions:

    Davisville Station is located on the Yonge Subway Line, 1 stop south of Eglinton Station and 4 stops north of Bloor.

    The subway station exit is located on the south west corner at Yonge & Davisville/Chaplin. As its winter, I will probably be standing inside the station.

    Look for me in the BLUE Toronto Outdoor Club shirt.
