Yes, 'Tis still the Fall hiking season! This is another one of my favourites because of the woodsy area along Black Creek and the interesting features along the trai such as the Lime Kilns, remnants of the Lime Industry in the past, rock crevices, bridges and more!
Midway through our hike we'll take a 30 min break to have a snack or lunch.
After the hike: Depending on our pace, if we have kept to schedule we have a short stop to buy some treats after the hike. This time we won't linger and plan to be back in Toronto (Kipling Station) by 4/4:30pm. If you have evening plans though, plan a little extra time to get to your event.
Cost all-in: *Not Included: Any post event purchases of treats/snacks.
- Passengers pay $15, this includes an event fee and gas costs for the drive (organizer coordinates carpool) and a great hike with hiking buddies new and old.
- Drivers at carpool taking passengers pay $5 only, as they already have to cover costs of the gas to drive up.
- There might be a small adjustment (not higher) to the above based on number of passengers in each car which will go back to the drivers at the end of the hike.
*Costs above help with meetup dues and the time required to research and plan successful events.
