Nordic Pole Walking

Nordic Pole Walking

The RTO 24 Nordic Pole Walkers have been meeting for over 6 years now. We meet every Wednesday morning. Walks are scheduled for 10 a.m. on Wednesday mornings in the paved ravine trails of Scarborough and East York.

We also have several out-of-area walks. In the spring, we take the subway to High Park to see the cherry blossoms. Later on, we visit Edwards Gardens for the tulips. In the summer, we take Milkman’s Run to the Brickworks in the Don Valley to look for turtles

We walk for approximately 5 k.m. using Nordic Walking Poles. If someone wishes to take a break, there are benches en route you can take a break with a friend and rejoin on our return. Our weekly walks are a way of being part of nature in a social setting with gentle exercise.

When patio dining or indoor dining was available, we also decided to meet in person for lunch on several occasions. We look forward to a year full of interesting walks.
