🍂 Fall Walk: Rouge National Urban Park and Picnic🌳
Details
🍂 Fall Walk: Rouge National Urban Park 🌳
is Canada's only Urban Park and is one of our most popular hikes that we do as it's really the only hiking trail in Toronto that you can get to by TTC. Once you are on the trail you will not believe that you are still in the City. Not only will we be walking up and hills but I will take you to one of the best lookout points in the Valley. You don't want to miss an afternoon of hiking.
This trail can be a bit challenging (with some ups and downs), so it may not be the best choice for beginners. But if you’re up for it, you’ll feel proud of yourself at the end — and you’ll have shared the experience with a great group of people.
After the hike, we’ll enjoy a group picnic (30–40 mins). Please bring something small to share — nothing too big so it’s easy to carry! 🥪🍎
