Humber salmon run (5 km)

It's salmon season! The short falls at Etienne Brulé park is the most reliable place to see salmon jumping against the current. It's also the most convenient too; just a few minutes from a subway station. We'll use the last light of day to spot migrating salmon. At dusk, we'll hike through so-called garden suburbs. Baby (pronounced babby) Point was the site of Teiaiagon, a Seneca village. Today, it's developed into landscaped single-family homes around swirly lanes. There are decent cafes but they're closed at night. So, we won't linger. We'll head to Bloor West Village, filled with restaurants and minor attractions. There's a converted theatre, a library with Haida totem poles, and scattered Ukrainian businesses. This neighbourhood was a magnet for Ukrainian immigrants in the 1950s. Most have moved on to other parts of the GTA but there's a resurgence in recent years with new Ukrainian restaurants sprouting up. There will be very quick stops to check out some bakeries and cafes en route. **Highlights** 1. Old Mill Restaurant (depart 6:15pm) 2. Salmon jump at Etienne Brulé Park 3. Rabago Bakery and Cafe (depart 7:05pm) 4. Momo Ghar 5. Chebureky House 6. The CakeSmith 7. Bao Bao Dim Sum / Meaty Eats 8. Runnymede Theatre 9. Runnymede Library (arrive 8pm) **Neighbourhoods** The Kingsway> Baby Point > Runnymede **Map** [https://www.google.com/maps/d/edit?mid=1VU95gNa5QAVCCoPTJcNK3jto8T7USBI&usp=sharing](https://www.google.com/maps/d/edit?mid=1VU95gNa5QAVCCoPTJcNK3jto8T7USBI&usp=sharing) **How it works** Hike starts punctually. Late or can't do the whole route? Meet us at scheduled checkpoints. We'll browse many food places but won't linger long. See the route in advance, organize takeout, then pickup along the way. Not sure what to try? Join our omakase for $5, which gives a tiny sample from different restaurants. Payment on the day of event by cash or e-transfer to globaltorontoeats@gmail.com. No refunds after orders have been placed. Details of sampled food will be uploaded after the hike. Limited cutlery provided. Highly recommended to bring cutlery and containers for omakase and bringing back leftovers. See our [About section](https://www.meetup.com/hike-to-eat/) for more info.

Sunnybrook bounce (10 km)

**Attendance policy is enforced for this hike**. See below for details. Sunnybrook Park is surrounded by undulating mountain biking trails. It's a bouncy ride, and that applies to those going on foot. These trails have lovely names like Roller Flowster, Asylum Climb, and Trash Panda. Come trek the hidden parts of the park. We'll pass by the major landmarks of Sunnybrook, including historical estates and the sprawling hospital grounds. Since there are no restaurants in Sunnybrook, we will continue to the adjacent neighbourhood of Leaside. It's one of the garden suburbs in Toronto, characterized by winding roads radiating from a central park. Businesses are sprinkled around the edges, including one of Toronto's best fish and chip shops. The hike ends at an industrial brewery and a trampoline park if you want to bounce some more. We don't usually rate difficulty of hikes because every person's capabilities are different. Other hiking groups in Toronto would rate this as an intermediate hike, except for the start which is **advanced** because of a very steep climb. If you're not confident, join us at Sunnybrook Stables or Sushi by K. This hike will be postponed if the trails are muddy from rain. **Highlights** 1. Charmaine Sweets (depart 11am) 2. Eglinton Avenue over Don Valley 3. Trash Panda trail 4. Wilket Creek 5. Sunnybrook Pavilion 6. Sunnybrook Stables (depart 12:10pm) 7. Memorial Arboretum 8. McLean House / The Coach House 9. Vaughan Estate 10. Sunnybrook Hospital 11. Roller Flowster trail 12. Burke Brook Ravine boardwalk (under restoration) 13. Lyndhurst Centre 14. BanCan Kitchen / Sushi by K (depart 1:20pm) 15. Leaside library 16. Olde Yorke Fish and Chips / Naan and Kabob 17. Former Canadian Northern Railway Eastern Lines Locomotive Shop 18. Amsterdam Brewery (arrive 1:50pm) **Neighbourhoods** Sunnybrook Park > Leaside **Map** [https://www.google.com/maps/d/edit?mid=1WOeg-9G_egPlKTgGToJkIwaxUJ814-Y&usp=sharing](https://www.google.com/maps/d/edit?mid=1WOeg-9G_egPlKTgGToJkIwaxUJ814-Y&usp=sharing) Undulating terrain. Steep, narrow paths. One massive incline near the start, which may require scrambling. Some tall bushes. Please wear appropriate clothing to avoid ticks and nasty stuff. Footwear with a good tread will help with descents. Please observe trail etiquette. Keep to the trail to avoid ecologically-sensitive areas and give way to bikes. **How it works** Hike starts punctually. Late or can't do the whole route? Meet us at scheduled checkpoints. See our [homepage](https://www.meetup.com/hike-to-eat/) for more info. **Attendance policy** Please check in with an organizer when you attend. 24 hours before the hike, we'll check who is on the confirmed list. Those that don't show up will be flagged. Repeat offenders may be banned. Please change your RSVP if you can no longer attend. If you made it off the waitlist less than 24 hours before the hike, you won't be considered a no-show.

GO transit food network (part 2)

Walk: Gatineau Corridor Trail! 9KM

# 🌿 Gatineau Corridor Trail Walk ### An Easy, Flat Walk — Perfect for Getting Started We'll begin near Kennedy Station and make our way through a series of small parks before connecting with the Gatineau Corridor Trail. Along the way, we'll pass through areas filled with wildflowers, tall grasses, and natural growth that give you a glimpse of what these spaces can look like when nature is allowed to take over a little. 🌼🌿 The city has changed the way some of these green spaces are maintained, allowing the grass and wildflowers to grow more naturally. Instead of perfectly manicured lawns, you'll see a much more colourful and natural landscape — a little reminder that sometimes the most beautiful parts of the city are the ones we simply let grow. Don't forget to join our **WhatsApp Group – [CLICK HERE!](https://chat.whatsapp.com/H59mSCbsAi018gYANrKAnc)** *** ## 🚶‍♂️ What We'll Do We'll start at the Dollar Tree and walk through the surrounding green spaces before joining the Gatineau Corridor Trail.

And remember — **you can leave at any time.** There are multiple points along the route where you can make your own way home. *** ## ☀️ Weather & Expectations This walk happens in typical Toronto weather conditions. Please dress appropriately for the weather and bring water, especially during the warmer months. This is one of our easier walks. If you've been wanting to start walking more but aren't sure you're ready for a longer or more challenging hike, **this is a great place to begin.** *** ## 🧢 Meetup Details 📍 **Meetup Location:** In front of the Dollar Tree Store 🫎 I'll be wearing my Moose Hat. ⏰ **Meetup Time: 11:00 AM** I will only wait 5 minutes. **Early is on time.
