Relaxed, social walks through our beautiful cityRandonnée Aventure’s City Walks are a wonderful way to bridge the summer and winter season, when trails are slippery and muddy. Some walks are also scheduled when there is no other activity planned for the Saturday. We take our members through diverse neighborhoods, discussing the history and architecture of each, in a relaxed and friendly atmosphere. Attendees chat along the way, making this as much a social event as a mild exercise. How our walks workThe activity consists of relatively short walks (5 to 6 km or so) in a combination of neighborhoods and city parks. Walks start at a meeting point, usually a Metro station, and end at the same or another Metro station. The walks usually take place on Saturday mornings, between 10 am and 12 noon. A stop for coffee or snacks will usually be planned during or after the walk. City Walks are free of charge for members. Non-members can attend a ‘try-out’ walk without purchasing a membership but are normally expected to become members for subsequent activities. Non-members that attend subsequent walks will be charged $5 per walk. |
Booking your walkThe schedule for City Walks is posted on the City Walks Calendar. By clicking on the item, you will be taken to a registration sheet. Simply write down the required information. Please note that we limit the number of participants to 40, so book early! Weather may require the cancellation of the outing. Always check the Wiki (City Walks) after 7 pm on the Friday prior to the outing to ensure there are no changes. We are always looking for feedback and suggestions from Randonnée members. You can email the City Walks Director at citywalks@randonnee.ca with your ideas. |
