North York Strollers

The North York Strollers is a friendly and enthusiastic group who investigate and discover various locations within the city of Toronto. The goals of the walks are: to enjoy the companionship of other nature lovers, to enjoy the natural beauty of our city and the changing seasons, to explore neighbourhoods and to exercise a few muscles in the process.

Walks are planned with a minimal number of steps and grades. The pace of the walk is determined by the needs and desires of the group. A refreshment and washroom break is usually planned approximately one hour into the walk. Walks last approximately two hours, but we have been known to continue a little longer and some often enjoy lunch together at the conclusion of our stroll. We've had two interesting walks this fall, with many new members joining in the fun. New walkers are always welcome.

We walk on the first Thursday of every month, regardless of the weather - rain or shine. Meeting places are listed for each walk.

Walks begin at 10:00 a.m.
