Itinerary:

I'm planning on doing weekly Sunday urban hikes. There might be weeks where I may end up switching it to a Saturday though - it'll be before registration opens though or if inclement weather conditions.

My plan is to hike the entire river valley from NE Edmonton all the way to the SW over about a 12 week period. There will also be some weeks where we won't be along the river valley but along creeks within the city.

Please note that this will be a moderate paced hike.

We will meet at 10:30am at the parking lot at Dawson Park and will leave at 10:40am sharp for the hike.

We will head east towards the Highland Golf Course then cross the bridge to Capilano Park and head back west towards Wayne Gretzky Drive, then pass the Riverside Golf Course to Dawson Bridge and back to Dawson Park.

Just to let you know that there are a few hills on this walk and will be on paved and gravel paths.

To find me, I will be wearing my yellow EOC baseball cap (also check my profile) and driving a silver Toyota Rav4.
