🎃🍂 Halloween Day: The Fall Colours of High Park & Ghost Stories 👻

# 🎃🍂 Halloween Day: The Fall Colours of High Park & Ghost Stories 👻 ### Fall Colours, Spooky Stories & A Little Halloween Fun It's Halloween — so why should the ghosts get to have all the fun at night? Join us for a **Halloween Day walk through High Park**, where we'll enjoy the fall colours while stopping along the way for some of the park's stranger, spookier, and downright weird stories. High Park has a long history of ghost stories and local legends. From stories connected to the **War of 1812** — yes, *that* War of 1812 — to tales of mysterious deaths and people who may not have completely left the park behind, there's plenty of history to make an ordinary fall walk a little more interesting. But don't worry. **This isn't a terrifying ghost hunt.** It's Halloween in the middle of the day. 👻☀️ Think **fall colours, creepy stories, a few laughs, and just enough spooky atmosphere to make you look over your shoulder once or twice.** 📱 Don't forget to join our **WhatsApp Group – [CLICK HERE](https://chat.whatsapp.com/H59mSCbsAi018gYANrKAnc)** *** ## 👻 What We'll Do We'll walk through **High Park**, stopping at different locations along the way while I share stories connected to the park's history and ghostly legends. Along the way we'll: * Enjoy the fall colours 🍂 * Explore some of High Park's most interesting locations * Hear stories of ghosts, legends, and strange events 👻 * Learn a little about the park's history * Take photos and enjoy the scenery 📸 * Have some Halloween fun along the way 🎃 We'll keep a steady walking pace, with regular stops for storytelling. The walk will remain **outside throughout** — there is no entry into buildings. *** ## 🎃 Halloween Day — So Let's Have Some Fun This isn't meant to be a serious paranormal investigation. It's a **Halloween walk**. Some stories are creepy. Some are strange. Some might make you wonder whether there's actually something going on. And some are just a good excuse to tell a spooky story while walking through the fall leaves. **You don't have to believe in ghosts.** You just have to enjoy a good story. *** ## 🍁 Fall Weather & Expectations This is an outdoor walk, so please dress appropriately for the weather. High Park can be cool and damp in late October, so bring a warm jacket and wear comfortable walking shoes.

🍁🎄Fall Niagara Falls Hiking Day Trip — Trails, Dinner & Festival of Lights!!

# 🍁🎄 Niagara Falls Fall Hiking Trip & Winter Festival of Lights! 🌈 🌦️ **RAIN OR SHINE!** The adventure goes on, whether we're enjoying golden sunshine, crisp autumn air, or a little mist from the Falls. After a day of hiking, we'll finish with dinner and the spectacular Winter Festival of Lights! ✨ *** ## 🥾 About the Trip Let's escape the city for a full day of fresh air, friendship, and breathtaking scenery! We'll explore the natural side of Niagara Falls — less time in the tourist crowds, more trails, trees, and spectacular views. We'll meet outside the **Fairmont Royal York on Front Street West**, travel together by GO Train to Niagara Falls, and make our way to **Niagara Glen Nature Reserve** for a hike among ancient boulders, winding forest paths, and the turquoise waters of the Niagara River. The trail features stairs, uneven ground, elevation changes, and a climb back up out of the gorge. This is a proper hike, so please read the expectations below before signing up. *** ## 🌲 The Trail Experience Niagara Glen is a beautiful natural area carved into the Niagara Gorge over thousands of years. We'll follow forest trails, take photos, enjoy the fall colours, and experience a side of Niagara Falls that many visitors never see. The planned hike is approximately **4 km**, although the terrain makes it more demanding than the distance might suggest. We'll have opportunities to pause and enjoy the scenery, but everyone needs to be prepared for the physical demands of the route. ### ⚠️🥾 IMPORTANT: HIKE EXPECTATIONS — PLEASE READ CAREFULLY 🥾⚠️ **This is a real hiking trail, not a casual walk.** Before signing up, please be confident that you can: * ✔️ Walk for an extended period of time. * ✔️ Handle uneven terrain, stairs, elevation changes, and the climb back up out of the gorge. * ✔️ Keep up with the group at a steady pace without needing frequent or extended stops. * ✔️ Manage a full day of walking, travel, dinner, and evening sightseeing. **This is not the event to use to test your fitness level or see how things go.** If you're unsure whether you can complete the hike, please choose an easier event instead. If you find yourself unable to keep up, you may need to turn back or continue independently where the route and circumstances allow. The group cannot stop or slow down significantly to accommodate someone who is struggling, as this affects the experience and schedule for everyone. Please make an honest assessment of your abilities before committing. The goal is to keep the day safe, enjoyable, and on track for the entire group. *** ## 🍔 Dinner at Chuck's Roadhouse After the hike, we'll head to **Chuck's Roadhouse on Clifton Hill** for a relaxed dinner. Everyone is responsible for the cost of their own meal. ⚠️ **Please note:** The restaurant has limited vegetarian options. If this means you won't be joining us for dinner, please let me know in advance so I can plan the numbers. Please don't leave this until the last minute, as I'll be arranging the dinner headcount. *** ## 🎇 Winter Festival of Lights After dinner, we'll head down to the Falls to enjoy the **Niagara Falls Winter Festival of Lights**. The surrounding area comes alive with illuminated displays and colourful seasonal installations. We'll take a relaxed evening stroll, enjoy the atmosphere, and stop for photos along the way. Bring warm layers — temperatures near the Falls can drop, especially after dark! 🧣✨ *** ## 💲 Meetup Fee **$5 Meetup fee** 💵 Cash at the event, or 📧 E-transfer to **[mathewmaclean@hotmail.com](mailto:mathewmaclean@hotmail.com)** before or on the day. *** ## 🚆 TRANSPORTATION REQUIREMENT — PLEASE READ **Everyone must travel with the group on the GO Train to participate in this event.** We will not meet people separately in Niagara Falls. Travelling together helps us coordinate the day's activities, stay on schedule, and avoid confusion about meeting points and transportation. Please arrive on time at our Toronto meeting point. We will not be able to hold the train for late arrivals. *** ## 🕒 Travel Details (Approximate) * **8:15 AM** — Meet outside the main doors of the Fairmont Royal York on Front Street West. Look for my Moose Hat! 🫎 * **8:30 AM** — Depart for the GO Train. * **9:03 AM** — Planned GO Train departure for Niagara Falls. * **11:25 AM** — Expected arrival in Niagara Falls. * **12:30 PM** — Planned start of the Niagara Glen hike. * **4:30 PM** — Dinner at Chuck's Roadhouse. * **6:00 PM** — Head down to the Falls for the Winter Festival of Lights. * **8:00–9:00 PM** — Target return-train window to Toronto. 🚆 These times are approximate and depend on the transit schedule and conditions on the day. I'll share any necessary updates closer to the event. Please check the current GO Transit schedule before purchasing your ticket. *** ## 🎟️ Tickets & What to Bring Please purchase the **GO + WEGO Combo Ticket** in advance. The previously listed round-trip price was approximately $20, but please check the current price and service details before buying. 👉 **[Click here for the Niagara Parks GO + WEGO offer](https://www.gotransit.com/en/partners-and-promotions/go-train-to-niagara-on-weekends)** Bring: * 🥾 Sturdy walking shoes or hiking boots with good grip. * 💧 Water and snacks. * 🧥 Warm layers for the evening. * 📸 A camera or charged phone. * 🎒 Anything else you need for a full day outdoors. *** ## ⚠️ Important Notes * This is a full, active day involving a train journey, a hike, dinner, and evening sightseeing. * The event is open to everyone — singles, couples, and friends — provided they can manage the hike. * Please RSVP only if you understand the physical requirements and can commit to the day's itinerary. * You can RSVP ahead of time or show up on the day if you're unsure about your schedule, but please remember that the train arrangements and group itinerary require punctuality. * Sometimes things happen and I may need to cancel or change the plans.

🍂🌿 NEW FALL WALK: Discover Biidaasige Park 🌿🍂

# 🍂🌿 **NEW FALL WALK: Discover Biidaasige Park** 🌿🍂 ### A Brand-New Toronto Park, Fall Colours & Waterfront Trails We're trying something **new**! Join us for our first group walk to **Biidaasige Park**, one of the newest and most ambitious parks in Toronto. Opened as part of the massive transformation of the Port Lands, the park sits on **Ookwemin Minising**, Toronto's new island where the Don River meets Lake Ontario. This isn't a walk we've done before, which makes it a little more exciting. We'll spend much of the afternoon actually **exploring the park rather than rushing through it** — following its trails, enjoying the waterfront, taking in the fall scenery, and stopping along the way to appreciate the new landscape. The park is enormous, with more than **50 acres already open** and more sections being added as the Port Lands transformation continues. There are curated trails and paths, viewpoints, natural areas, and places to get down closer to the new Don River. And because we're doing this in the fall, we'll get to experience the park at a completely different time of year — cooler air, changing leaves, open skies, and fewer summer crowds. 🍂 We'll meet at the **Young Centre in the Distillery District** simply because it's an easy and convenient meeting point before we head toward the park. We won't be spending the day touring the Distillery District — **the park is the destination.** 📲 **Don't Forget to join our WhatsApp Group – [\[CLICK HERE!\]](http://xn--%5Bclick%20here!%5D(%20join%20our%20whatsapp%20group-cu832c:%20Click%20here%20to%20join)/)** *** ## 🚶‍♂️ **What We'll Do** We'll meet outside the **Young Centre for the Performing Arts** and make our way toward Biidaasige Park. Once we reach the park, we'll slow things down and spend about **90 minutes exploring the trails and waterfront**. Along the way we'll: * 🍂 Enjoy the fall colours * 🌿 Explore the park's trails and green spaces * 🌊 Walk along the new waterfront landscape * 📸 Stop for photos and scenic views * 🌳 Explore the natural areas around the new Don River * 🌆 Take in views toward the Toronto skyline and Toronto Islands * 🚶‍♂️ Enjoy plenty of time to walk and talk with the group The walk itself will be approximately **2 hours**, but we're not trying to race through it. **This is about experiencing the park.** It's our first time doing this walk, so we'll take our time and actually enjoy discovering what has been created here. *** ## 🌊 **Why Biidaasige Park?** Biidaasige Park is part of one of the biggest transformations Toronto has seen in decades. The new Don River was created as part of the Port Lands Flood Protection project, transforming former industrial land into a new river valley, wetlands, parkland and public spaces. The first phase of Biidaasige Park opened in July 2025. The park includes **accessible trails, cycling paths, river access, wetlands, viewpoints and waterfront promenades**, with views toward the Toronto Islands, Inner Harbour and skyline. And there's something particularly fun about visiting a place that is still **brand new**. We're not revisiting an old Toronto favourite. **We're discovering somewhere new together.** *** ## 🍺 **After the Walk: The Keating Channel Pub & Grill** After exploring the park, we'll head over to **The Keating Channel Pub & Grill** for lunch. The pub sits right on the Keating Channel and has been a local fixture in the area for more than 20 years. After years of Port Lands construction made the neighbourhood difficult to reach, the transformation of the area has brought new life and new visitors back to the waterfront. It's a nice way to finish the day: **a brand-new park followed by one of the neighbourhood's old survivors.** Lunch is optional, but everyone is welcome to join us. *** ## 🍂 **Fall Weather & Expectations** This is a **social urban walk**, not a difficult hike. We'll be walking for approximately two hours, including our time exploring the park, so you should be comfortable being on your feet for that length of time. Please dress for typical Toronto fall weather. The waterfront can be cooler and windier than other parts of the city, so a warm layer is a good idea. *** ## 🧢 **Meetup Details** 📍 **Meetup Location:** Outside the **Young Centre for the Performing Arts**, 50 Tank House Lane, in the Distillery District. Young Centre for the Performing Arts 🫎 **Look for me in my Moose Hat!** ⏰ **Meetup Time: 11:00 AM sharp** I will only wait **5 minutes**. **Early is on time. On time is late.** 🏁 **End Point:** The Keating Channel Pub & Grill *** ## 🎟️ **Meetup Fee** **$5 cash in person or e-transfer** 📧 **mathewmaclean@hotmail.com** This fee helps support the group and allows us to continue organizing walks and events throughout Toronto. *** ## 🎒 **What to Bring** 💧 Water 👟 Comfortable walking shoes 🥪 A snack 🧥 Weather-appropriate clothing 📸 Your phone or camera for photos *** ## 🌈 **Who Is This For?** This walk is great for: * People who enjoy discovering new places in Toronto * Anyone who likes parks and waterfront trails * People who want a relaxed social walk * Anyone interested in seeing Toronto's newest public spaces * People who enjoy exploring somewhere they've never been before * Anyone who wants to spend a fall day outside with good people The park may be new. **The idea is the same: come out, walk with us, and meet some people along the way.** *** 📲 **You're welcome to RSVP ahead of time — or just show up on the day if you're unsure about your schedule.** Sometimes things happen and events may need to be cancelled or changed, so please keep an eye on the event page for updates. 👤 **Organizer: Mathew** Questions? Post on the event wall or email: 📧 **torontomoviesandoutings@hotmail.com** **Come discover a new park.** **Stay for the fall colours.** **Stay a little longer for lunch and friendship.** 🍂🌿🍺
