Description
Description: We will start our hike at the Herbert G. Carnegie Centennial Centre and will walk along the West Don River Trail through the beautiful forested ravine system of the Hinder Area. Along the way, we will find a flat area to pause - weather permitting- and do some gentle Yoga standing poses- no Yoga mat is required. We will continue our hike through Earl Bales Park, where we will stop for lunch. After lunch, we will start our way back and end our hike on Bathurst St, North of Sheppard Ave.
