Toronto Vegan Climbing - Basecamp Bloor

Join us at our vegan-friendly social climbing session! We welcome all vegans, vegetarians, or anyone who is curious about the lifestyle and/or interested in eating more plant-based. No climbing experience is necessary. Whether you're a seasoned pro or a first-time climber, all are welcome. We will be bouldering, top roping, and using autobelays - feel free to join whichever activity you're interested in! For those who are climbing for the first time, not to worry as it is quick to pick up and we are happy to provide some pointers on technique. You can boulder or use the autobelays after getting a quick orientation from the staff at the gym. For top roping, we're happy to belay any of our attendees. **Fees**: * $28 admission fee, plus rentals Climbing shoes are strongly recommended (disclaimer: rental shoes are not vegan as they contain suede/leather). Harnesses are only necessary for top roping and autobelay, however this gym is primarily a rope climbing gym. * Shoe rental: $7.00 * Harness rental: $7.00 Remember to sign the [waiver](https://waiver.smartwaiver.com/w/5f121ea156df1/web/) before you hit the rocks! You can sign the waiver online or in person once you arrive. Make sure to arrive at the Bloor location, there are multiple Basecamp locations! Happy climbing! 🧗‍♂️🌱 Note: Clean indoor shoes are allowed to be worn, however we highly recommend using climbing shoes otherwise your experience will be negatively impacted.

No overwhelming crowds—just a small group of strangers ready to become friends. * **A New Spot Every Week:** We host our dinners at a different local restaurant each week. *Please note: the map pin on this event page is just a placeholder. We will email you the actual restaurant location ahead of the event!* * **Independent Curations:** These social dinners are organized independently by SlowDating.ca and are not directly affiliated with the venues. ✨ Why Join Us? Life gets busy, and finding a new community as an adult can be tough. We make it effortless to break out of your comfort zone. Our unique, low-pressure approach to connection was even featured in **Eventbrite’s 2025 TRNDS report** for leading the shift toward meaningful micro-events! 📝 Important Details to Note * **Pricing & Currency:** All ticket prices and transactions on our pages are processed in **$CAD**. * **Minimum Sign-ups:** To ensure everyone has a great social experience, we require a minimum number of attendees.

🍂 Fall Walk: Rouge National Urban Park and Picnic🌳

# 🍂🌳 Fall Walk: Rouge National Urban Park 🌳🍁 ### A Real Hike, Beautiful Fall Colours & a Picnic Together Want to get out of the city without actually leaving Toronto? **Rouge National Urban Park** is Canada's only urban national park — and one of the most popular hikes we do. Once you get onto the trail, it can be hard to believe you're still in Toronto. Forest paths, rolling hills, changing leaves, and quiet stretches of wilderness make this feel much more like a trip outside the city than a walk through it. And fall is one of the best times to experience it. This is **a real hike**, though. There are some hills and ups and downs, so it isn't the best choice if you're looking for an easy, flat walk. But if you're up for the challenge, there's something satisfying about reaching the end knowing you did it together. And then we'll have a picnic. 🧺 📱 Don't forget to join our **WhatsApp Group – [CLICK HERE](https://chat.whatsapp.com/H59mSCbsAi018gYANrKAnc)** *** ## 🥾 What We'll Do We'll meet at **Don Mills Station** and take the 85C bus together toward Rouge National Urban Park. Once we arrive, we'll begin our hike through the park. Along the way we'll: * Hike through forest and open spaces 🌳 * Enjoy the fall colours 🍂 * Navigate the hills and changing terrain * Take in some beautiful views * Stop for a short break along the route * Finish at the Park's Welcome Centre * Have a **30–40 minute group picnic** afterward 🧺 The hike takes approximately **2½ hours**, plus a short break. Afterward, we'll take some time to relax, eat, and enjoy each other's company. *** ## 🍁 Fall Weather & Expectations This is a **moderately challenging hike**, not a casual stroll. There are hills, uneven sections, and some ups and downs, so good walking or hiking shoes are important. Please come prepared for typical fall weather and bring enough water for the hike. If you're comfortable walking for a couple of hours and handling some elevation changes, you'll be fine. If you're looking for something completely flat and easy, **this probably isn't the walk for you.** *** ## 🚌 Meetup Details ### 🚇 By TTC 📍 **Meetup Location:** Don Mills Station — on the platform for the **85C bus** 🫎 **Look for me in my Moose Hat!** ⏰ **Meetup Time:** **9:45 AM** 🚌 **Bus Leaves:** **10:06 AM sharp** I'll wait for the bus, but if you miss it, **you won't be able to join the group afterward.** **Early is on time.

Please bring something small to share — nothing too large or heavy. The goal is simply to have something to eat together after the hike. 🥪 Sandwiches 🍎 Fruit 🍪 Snacks 🥤 Drinks Whatever is easy to carry and share is perfect. *** ## 🧢 Meetup Details at a Glance 🥾 **Hike:** Approximately 2½ hours + short break 🧺 **Picnic:** 30–40 minutes 🏁 **End Point:** Park's Welcome Centre 💲 **Meetup Fee:** $5 cash or e-transfer 📧 **mathewmaclean@hotmail.com** *** ## 🎒 What to Bring 💧 Water 🥾 Good walking shoes or hiking shoes 🥪 A snack 🧺 Something small to share for the picnic 🧥 A fall jacket or layers *** ## 🌈 Who Is This For?
