Description
We will follow the trail through Windsfield Farm Park south to Banbury Road, and stop at the Civic Garden Centre for a break. After the break we continue down through the Bridle Path Neighbourhood to the woods on the edge of the Sunnybrook Park playing fields. After exiting Serena Gundy Park that hike will finish near Laid Station on TTC Line 5. There will be an optional refreshment stop in Leaside. This will be a shortened version of the hike I usually lead on the weekend. Remember to bring drinking water and snacks. Washrooms will be available at York Mills Arena and the Civic Garden Centre, Due to the damage done by the storm on September 2nd the Wilket Creek Trail is closed except for the southernmost 500 metres.
