Meet at the Toronto Public Library, Beaches Branch. My late husband Gregory Vincent grew up in the beach and we often visited and walked the area. We will walk the boardwalk and easy pathways that wind along the variety of beaches between Victoria Park Avenue to Ashbridges Bay Park. It will be an out and back route with a couple short loops 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 have frequent visits to this area and we will make our way across Queen St. to walk the Glen Stewart Ravine a nice ascent, taking in beautiful picturesque natural areas along Ames creek, meandering on elevated boardwalks and stair cases and then descending the area on some of the pleasing neighbourhood streets back to our start at the Beaches Branch Library. A pleasing area that offers a little something for everyone and with the sights and sounds of Christmas in the beach neighbourhood.
If you want something a little shorter you can drop-out at various locations along the way. For those who want a stop after the hike, we have a variety of cafes and restaurants to choose from. No dogs. Wear good footwear, bring snacks/lunch and water. Dress according to the weather conditions for the day.

The Walk In Nature Series (WINS) consists of short loop hikes in the Sydenham section of the Bruce Trail that combine nature appreciation with fitness in a safe and welcoming group environment led by an experienced hike leader. Consider these hikes to be appointments with yourself in nature that promote health and fitness.This northbound linear hike from Blantyre, km 0.0 of the Sydenham section, along the gently-sloped escarpment and through the scenic Rocklyn Creek Management Area leads us to our preplaced shuttle vehicle(s) at the St. Vincent-Sydenham townline. From there, hikers enjoy a 10 minute shuttle ride back to their vehicles. Some good news about this hike, that more or less follows down Rocklyn Creek, is that gravity is on our side!
Arrive 15 min early, dress in layers with good footwear. Hiking poles may be helpful. Bring water and a snack. See you there!
