Description
Meet at the Toronto Public Library, Beaches Branch. We will walk the boardwalk and easy pathways that wind along the variety of beaches from Silver Birch Avenue to Ashbridges Bay Park. It will be an out and back route, with lots of views into Lake Ontario, you will see many points of interest, parks, Kew gardens, including the historic Leuty Lifesaving Station and the historic architecture of the Ashbridges Bay Wastewater Treatment Plant, the R.C. Harris Filtration Plant. I've had frequent visits to this area as Greg, my late husband, grew up in the beach with many fond memories. A pleasing area that offers a little something for everyone!
No dogs. Good footwear, snacks and water.
