Details
### ๐ฟ Hogg's Hollow Summer Evening Walk & Dinner ๐
Join us for a beautiful summer evening walk through Hogg's Hollow, one of Toronto's most charming and historic neighbourhoods tucked away in the heart of North York. With its winding roads, forested trails, picturesque bridges, and peaceful ravines, it's hard to believe you're still in the city.
We'll stroll through the valley where the West Don River winds its way past historic homes, quiet streets, and lush green spaces. Along the way, we'll explore the area's fascinating historyโfrom James Hogg, the Scottish settler who established a mill here in the 1820s, to the tragic
Hogg's Hollow Disaster of 1960, when five workers lost their lives during the construction of a water tunnel, an event that forever changed workplace safety laws in Ontario.
As the evening sun filters through the trees, it's the perfect opportunity to enjoy great conversation, meet new people, and discover one of Toronto's hidden gems.
