Itinerary:
This week will be a Thursday walkabout.
The first walkabout was fun. The group went out even though the weather did not look promising. It was a good walkabout with a great people. Are you interested in a weekday urban hike? The second walkabout will start at Emily Murphy Park.
Each week we hike in parks around the city. Hawrelak, Emily Murphy, Louise Mckinney, Dawson, etc. I hope to get some regulars as well as those who only have time to come out once in a while. If you are interested - sign up and we will see you at Emily Murphy Park on Thursday.
These walks are about fresh air, exercise and exploration of the river valley trails. The trails this week are gravel and paved .
You can identify me by the cowboy hat I will be wearing while waiting for everyone to arrive.
Meet for this event near the Groat Bridge.
Once in the park turn left at the T intersection and there is a parking lot near the bridge. I will be waiting there.
