Meeting Location

Directions:
- Whitemud Drive to 170 ST South
- turn left onto Wolf Willow Road,
- turn right onto Wanyandi Road
- look for a small blue sign labelled Fort Edmonton Foot Bridge on Wanyandi Road at its intersection with Wanyandi Way
- turn left onto Wanyandi Way.
- Follow Wanyandi Way a short distance along, and you will see permitted/signed curbside parking for Fort Edmonton Footbridge on the right (south) side of Wanyandi Way, west of its intersection with Wize Court.
Park on the south side as described above, and we will meet by the Wize Court intersection.

FYI: If you end up by the West Edmonton Mall then you have gone the wrong way and you took 170 ST North instead of South.

The hike will be moderate in intensity and will include paved and unpaved areas. Length of hike will be approx. 7km and should take us 1.5-2 hours to complete. Proper hiking footwear is encouraged.

We will make a quick detour to the Edmonton Footbridge, then head back along the trail on the west side of the river towards a 200 step staircase.
From there we can decide if we prefer to climb up the staircase or go down it.
Please be prepared to climb the staircase.

Please note that part of the hike is off leash designated. I am open to having dogs on the hike, however they must be leashed when necessary.


Required Items to Bring:
A decent pair of hiking boots or light hikers
a bright cheery attitude (or the willingness to get one soon)
a liter or more of drinking water		Recommended Items to Bring:
