Not-the-beach neighbourhoods (4.6 km)

Attendance policy is enforced for this hike. See below for details.

Everyone knows The Beaches neighbourhood in Toronto. Not many are familiar with the neighbourhoods to the north: The Beach Triangle, Beach Hill, and Upper Beaches. They're nowhere near a beach nor have anything to do with it. In fact, they have green areas and a suburbia character.

This hike will mostly follow Kingston Road because that's where the food and attractions are. The attractions: venerable churches, schools, and colourful murals. The food options: familiar like burgers, sandwiches, patties, ice cream, and the like. We can end the hike at any of these or a fancy restaurant.
