Hike description GHTC is excited to invite you to our first-ever Blue Jays Bus Hike! This is a GHTC fundraising event that we hope becomes an annual tradition for our club!
Join us for a unique experience that combines hiking with seeing the Toronto Blue Jays take on the defending World Series champion, Texas Rangers, at the newly renovated Rogers Centre! Hikers will have two different hike-types from which to choose. Hike # 1 drop-off location will be at the Humber Bay Bridge in Etobicoke. Hike # 1 is ~7.5 km in length; moving at 4 km/hour pace along Toronto’s boardwalk adjacent to the waterfront. Hike # 2 drop-off location is the Exhibition Place Wind Turbine. Hike # 2 is ~3.4 km in length; moving at 2 km/hour pace along Toronto’s boardwalk adjacent to the waterfront. Both hikes offer beautiful views of Lake Ontario and Toronto’s skyline as we approach the Rogers Centre by foot. Once at the Rogers Centre, hikers will be able to offload any gear inside of our bus and then proceed into the Rogers Centre to take in the Blue Jays game!
