Take a walk through time with 'Footsteps Around the Fort,' a guided exploration of the CityPlace and Fort York area. This tour offers a unique look at how Toronto’s historic military roots have intertwined with the rapid modern development of one of the city's most densely populated neighbourhoods.
What to Expect
This isn't just a walk; it's a storytelling experience. You'll traverse about 2 km of paved pathways, learning about the landmarks that define the area and the stories of the people who shaped it. It’s a fantastic way to get some fresh air, learn something new about your city, and meet fellow residents. The tour is family-friendly and, best of all, dog-friendly, so feel free to bring your four-legged companion along for the journey.
Practical Info
Tours run at 11 a.m. and 2 p.m. starting from Canoe Landing Park at Bobber Plaza. Since it's an outdoor event, make sure to check the forecast and dress accordingly. It’s a free community event, making it a perfect low-pressure weekend activity. After the tour, you're perfectly positioned to explore the nearby Fort York National Historic Site or grab a coffee in the surrounding CityPlace community.
