I am now offering private guided nature walks in the Greater Toronto Area. I am available to lead walks for individuals and groups throughout Toronto’s ravines, parks and trail systems. The walks can be provided covering general nature, birding, photography, natural history, land stewardship and advocacy. The walks are available for $40 per person, and group rates are listed below.
Here is a small sample of locations where I can lead walks:
Tommy Thompson Park
Toronto Island Park
East Don Parkland
Charles Sauriol Conservation Area
Ravines and Trail systems:
There are many trail options to choose from across the city to explore, below are some of my favourites:
Don River Trail – multiple access points from Leslie Street & Steeles Avenue to Lakeshore Avenue.
Waterfront Trail – multiple access from the east near Scarborough Bluffs to the west in south Etobicoke.
Humber River Trail – multiple access points from the Old Mill Bridge and points north.
Here is a link to the City of Toronto’s website covering the city’s ravines, trails and natural parklands for areas that I have not covered above.
