Itinerary:

Meet at the parking lot for Dawson Park (10298 89 Street) for a 7:00 PM departure. I will be wearing a royal blue EOC baseball cap, so you can recognize me.

This hike is on a mixture of paved and unsurfaced trails, and will be at a easy to moderate pace. However, note that the trail up Kinnaird Ravine is a long steady climb.

Head NE from the parking lot along the paved River Valley trail as far as Kinnaird Ravine, then head up Kinnaird Ravine where we will spend a few moments looking at some of the impressive murals which have been displayed in the Ravine over the last few months. We will then leave the Ravine and pick up a "goat trail" that takes us back into the River Valley, prior to returning to our cars.

The event duration will be approximately 2 hours.

Note that dogs are very welcome on this hike, please note City of Edmonton bylaws re on- leash/off-leash areas though.

Afterwards we can go for some well deserved refreshments and snacks at the Hill Top Pub: 8220-106 Avenue.
