Itinerary:

Let's strengthen those legs and lungs!
Come on out for a daytime slow-ish pace urban conditioning hike.
Sorry, no dogs please. I'll be keeping these walks to a smaller group size from now on so we don't overwhelm the residents with a group wandering around through the neighborhood :-)

Meet at Crescent Road and 4th St NW - NOT at the top of the stairs. We will follow a variety of dirt, gravel and paved paths up and down along McHugh Bluffs, between Centre St and 10th St - although we will not cross either street - and will include one trip up the stairs near the curling club.

Bring whatever type of backpack and amount of weight you are comfortable carrying. Challenge yourself a little more each week!


Required Items to Bring:
- layered clothing appropriate to changing weather conditions
- some form of ice traction: Icers and Microspikes are both excellent. Other choices are available and you may find them suitable.
Recommended Items to Bring:
Use our Event Checklists to make sure you have everything you need.
- water
- whatever else you need

How to Get There:
Event Directions:Access 12th Ave from Centre St or 4th St N.W. Then turn south onto 3rd St NW. Turn West on Crescent Road til you get to 4th St N.W. Park there and meet at the top of the hill near the bench.
Free 2 hour parking is available along Crescent Road - watch signage!
