Join us on Saturday, September 6th at 10:00 am for a 3-hour, 5 km linear nature and heritage walk.
We will be walking north on Sherbourne Street over the Rosedale Valley to Crescent Road and west to Yonge Street at the Rosedale Subway Station. We will walk west through Ramsden Park and then south through Yorkville to finish at the Yonge Station. (Ramsden Park is the site of the lost Aura Lea Golf Club. The Yorkville Golf Club, also long gone, was further north.) We will talk about the natural and built history of the area, and play Tree Bingo.
