Itinerary: | |||||||
The Douglas Fir Trail traverses the
escarpment above the Bow River, east of
Edworthy Park. This is a short but
reasonably
strenuous trail run (or walk) with lots of
ups and downs via stairs. We
will run (or for those of who wish to walk) at a moderately brisk
pace. If you prefer to walk, please check
with the coordinator if there are any
sign-ups who prefer to walk, or make sure
you have a walking partner if you do not
wish to walk alone. We will meet on the SOUTH side of the river near where the pathway crosses the train tracks. (OPPOSITE side of the river to Angels Cafe). There is a parking lot right beside. We will run (or walk) east, do the hike one way and return the same way. Total distance is approx. 7.5 km return. For those who plan to run, we will add a bit more distance to allow the walkers to complete the entire trail. | |||||||
