🌳🌊 HIGH PARK TO OLD MILL ADVENTURE - Stop at Tom's Dairy Freeze - 12KM🍦🚶‍♂️

# 🌳🌊 HIGH PARK TO OLD MILL ADVENTURE (12KM) 🍦🚶‍♂️

Parks, Waterfront Views, the Humber River & One of Toronto's Best Ice Cream Stops

If you're looking for a walk that showcases some of the very best of Toronto, this is it.

Join us for an incredible 12 km adventure that combines everything that makes Toronto special—beautiful parks, scenic waterfront trails, the Humber River, hidden nature, and, of course... ice cream!

We'll begin in the heart of High Park before making our way through the park's winding trails and towering trees. From there we'll head down to the Sunnyside Boardwalk, enjoying stunning views of Lake Ontario as we stroll along the waterfront.

After a relaxing shortt break, we'll continue north along the Humber River Trail before rewarding ourselves with a stop at the legendary Tom's Dairy Freeze, a Toronto institution that's been serving some of the city's favourite soft serve, burgers, and fries since 1969.
Our adventure finishes at Old Mill Subway Station after experiencing four completely different sides of Toronto—all in one walk.

This walk happens rain or shine unless severe weather makes it unsafe.
Although this isn't a difficult hike, it is a longer walk, and participants should be comfortable walking 12 km at a steady social pace.
There are also several sets of stairs near the end of the walk, so please be prepared for a final climb before reaching Old Mill Station.
This is a social walk—not a guided historical tour. The goal is to enjoy the outdoors, explore the city, and spend time getting to know one another.
