    Description

    Join us for a pleasant walk along Wilket Creek and West Don River through Glendon Forest as we loop around the playing fields of Sunnybrook Park and hike north picking up Wilket Creek to Edwards Gardens.

    Important note: this hike has a creek crossing. Under normal conditions we can keep our feet dry by stepping on flat stones to cross the shallow stream. It is an easy crossing. The stones are evenly spaced and sturdy. If it should rain prior to the hike, we will need to take our shoes off and wade across. Even then it will still be shallow. Bring a small towel or handkerchief to dry your feet.

    Transit users, here are your options (car users will finish the loop back to their cars for a 14 km trip):

    Option 1: St. Andrew’s Park to Edwards Gardens (13 km)

    Option 2: Irving Paisley Park to Edwards Gardens (11 km)

    Option 3: St. Andrew’s Park and loop back with car users to Irving Paisley Park (16 km)

    Lunch stop at Frost Library Garden, Glendon College Campus (York University).

    Please pack a lunch or snacks and 2 litres water. Water fountain by the washrooms in Sunnybrook Park. Bring insect repellant, sun screen and a hat.

    Public Washrooms at Glendon College, Sunnybrook Park and Edwards Gardens as well as bio breaks along the trail. For anyone arriving early to Irving Paisley Park there are washrooms at the Metro across Bayview Ave (west side) and there is also a coffee shop.
