WINTER HIKING HOLIDAY SPECIAL RAIN DATE
For those of you looking for a little outside recreation to balance the festivities of the season we are offering this mid week hike. This will be a hike closer to home and will be a little shorter than usual.
Please keep in mind that Winter Hiking is different than Fall Hiking. Proper clothing + footwear + crampon style icers are a must for any hike. Icers may not be required but should be available in your pack if necessary.

Jokers Hill is a property managed as a research area by the University of Toronto and that coupled with the trails at Thornton Bales Conservation area make it a great place to go hiking. There are lots of elevation changes which make the trails both interesting and challenging and it is relatively close to the city although as with most other places parking can be a challenge.
