Description

Come enjoy an easy, leisurely hike up the Credit River, going through part of Erindale Park. There is one rocky, but flat section. We may get lucky and see some early Spring Ephemerals (wildflowers). Bring water, a snack and sunscreen. You probably don’t need poles but if you like using them as I do, bring them. (Exercises my upper arms as well as providing balance. )

Description

April is a muddy time of year on our Beaver Valley Trail, so let’s get out on some urban walks this month, have some exercise and enjoy the camaraderie we find with group walks. Dress appropriately for the weather and bring water. We’ll be walking in Thornbury on trails through town, and visiting the waterfront. Ken & Marg have kindly invited us to their place for pizza on them after our walk! If you feel moved to bring along something sweet for post pizza, feel free.
