BGOW – POP-UP HIKE

January 17 @ 10:00 AM 1:00 PM UTC-4

WHY WOULD WE WASTE A GOOD SNOW STORM? COME FROLIC WITH US IN THE CITY!

The snow has finally fallen in the city! What better way to enjoy it than to be outside in community, taking in the sights and sounds of nature!

Join us this Saturday morning in High Park for a nice, easy hike right in the heart of the city!

WHAT TO EXPECT:

High Park is a jewel and a bit of calm in an otherwise busy, bustling city. An urban oasis teaming with bird life and opportunities for animal tracking, the park offers a near-perfect opportunity to slow down and be present in nature.

So pack your curiosity, warm clothes, and come prepared to hike, possibly spot some birds and build community!

For the safety of our participants, the exact meeting location will be sent via email to registered participants.

HIKE DIFFICULTY: Beginner-friendly with slight elevation. Expect 5-6.5 km at a relaxed pace with the opportunities to delight in the beauty of mother nature.

TERRAIN: Trails may be snowy or uneven. We move slowly and stay together as a group.

WHAT WE PROVIDE

Guided Hike

A safer and welcoming community

WHAT TO WEAR:

Layers (warm layers)

Warm socks

Winter boots

Gloves and hand warmers

Crampons and/or walking poles (recommended but not mandatory)

This hike is not designed for speed but to take in the beauty of the landscape with time for photos, connecting with each other, and the nature around us.

High Park is accessible via public transit. If arriving by personal transporation, paid parking is available along Bloor Street.

The fees for this hike are non-refundable and non-transferable.
