❄️🚶♀️ EXPLORATION WALK OF YORKVILLE & U of T — 6KM 🎓✨
Rosedale Subway Station, 7 Crescent Road, Toronto, ON, CA❄️🚶♀️ EXPLORATION WALK: YORKVILLE & U OF T – 6 KM 🎓🏙️
Because winter is temporary… but missing this walk is forever.
“There’s no such thing as bad weather, only unsuitable clothing.”
So layer up, zip up, and let’s romanticize January like true Torontonians 😌❄️
This walk explores two parts of the city that started out the same — and then went in completely different directions. One got glitzier. One stayed timeless. Both are very walkable, dramatic, and worth showing up for.
***
### THE WALK 🗺️✨
We’ll start and end at Rosedale Subway Station, making a glorious winter loop.
• Rosedale Park 🌳 – quiet, elegant, and shockingly peaceful.
• Yorkville 💎 – once wealthy, then a hippie coffee-shop haven, and now one of the richest neighbourhoods in the city. Full-circle glow-up.
• University of Toronto 🏛️ – once reserved for Toronto’s elite, now open to everyone. Unlike Yorkville, it’s beautifully frozen in time, with historic buildings that haven’t changed much — except for the degrees inside them.
• Bamboo Forest at U of T 🎋 – we’ll try to sneak a peek if it’s open (because mystery is part of the fun).
☕ WARM-UP BREAK:
We’ll make a 30-minute stop at Tim Hortons to thaw our fingers, grab food and drinks, and question why winter feels personal.
***
⚠️ IMPORTANT NOTES
• Do NOT sign up if you’re not ready to walk in winter ❄️
• This walk happens in snow, cold, wind, or vibes
• Event will only be cancelled if it hits -20°C (because we are sensible, not soft)
***
### MEETUP DETAILS 🧤🧣
📍 Meetup Location: Outside Rosedale Subway Station
👀 How you’ll spot me: I’ll be wearing my MOOSE HAT (a winter icon)
⏰ Meetup Time: 11:00 AM
⏱️ I wait 5 minutes only — Early is on time, on time is late
💰 Meetup Fee: $5 (cash 💵 or e-transfer 📲 to **mathewmaclean@hotmail.com**)
You can send it before or on the day of the walk.m
🏁 End Point: Rosedale Subway Station
***
👀 NOT SURE YOU CAN MAKE IT?
Just show up. Literally. Winter plans are fluid.
***
### WHAT TO BRING 🎒
• Water
• Good boots (non-negotiable)
• Gloves & hat
• Something warm to drink ☕
• A snack
***
⏳ HOW LONG?
About 3 hours, including our warm-up break.
🚪 Can you leave early? Anytime you like — no judgment, only vibes.
