What we’re about
Welcome to Mix and Mingle Walks! This walking group will offer over 50 different walking trailers in all parts of Toronto. We are a walking group that is more on the leisure side as we don't walk to slow or too fast. We are open to anyone that loves to walk, that wants to walk more and to get more exercise. This group is for those that want to meet other members as they are walking. I hope by the event of the walk, you have met a new friends or something more. We also respect people's wishes, we never reach out to any members that we have not met or have not asked to be reaches to.
This group is open to everyone and anyone on Meetup.

Toronto is one of the greenest cities in the world. We are a friendly and easy going group that believes everyone will be treated with respect. All events we be transit accessible.

### 🌳 About the Brick Works
The Don Valley Brick Works operated as one of Canada’s top brickyards from 1889–1980. In the 1990s, the City and TRCA restored the site into a park and community hub. Today it’s a gorgeous spot where history, nature, and city life come together. Every visit is different — you never know what you’ll discover!

🐟 Salmon Run at Humber River & James Gardens 🍂
Celebrate the magic of fall with a walk along the Humber River during salmon run season! Watch in amazement as salmon leap upstream, returning home to the waters where they were born. We’ll spend about 30 minutes by the river enjoying this incredible sight, then continue our walk along the water.
✨ Fun Fact: Some salmon travel over 3,000 km from the Atlantic Ocean to spawn in freshwater rivers like the Humber. They leap up waterfalls and rapids with incredible strength — all to return to the exact spot where they were born.
Our mid-walk break will be at James Gardens — a beautiful hidden gem in Toronto that most people don’t even know exists. Perfect for photos, relaxing, and soaking up the season.
