Itinerary:

We will meet in the parking lot at Emily Murphy Park, near the base of Groat Bridge at 6:30 for registration. We will leave at 6:45 for the hike. The hike will last about 2- 2.5 hours. The pace of the walk will be quick for some, with a few stops along the way. We will walk along the golf course to Hawrelak Park, across the footbridge to the west side of the River and along the river to MacKinnon ravine. Due to trail closures we will be walking up out of the river valley, so be prepared for hills! From MacKinnon ravine we walk through Government Hill park to the Groat Bridge and back to the cars.

You could encounter muddy conditions and the hike will go rain or shine so be prepared! Water will be necessary.

Water

How to Get There:

Event Directions:

To get to Emily Murphy Park take Groat Road and follow the signs to the Parks areas. You will be turning uphill as if to enter the university grounds, and the park turn is part way up the hill. Follow the road to the T intersection, turn left and through the parking lot until you turn near the base of Groat Bridge. Donna drives a silver Dodge Caravan.
