Description

A rail trail/urban hike for the winter.  Starting with a walk through Gage Park we will access the rail trail at Wentworth by way of quiet undermount streets.  After following the rail trail we will descend by the Kenilworth stairs, returning to Gage Park (see Hamilton Loops and Lattes page 95).  Bring water, snack and possibly icers depending on weather conditions.
