About Us

Hike Toronto was established in 2022. The immediate goal of Hike Toronto is to begin with three trails to be completed in 2023; a cemetery trail, a trail on city property across from the cemetery, and a trail from Mara Lane to the peak of Mt. Nebo. The long-term goal is to connect all of these trails and to add others so that the entire western hillside of town is an end-to-end interconnected trail system.

Hike Toronto is a citizen driven enterprise working closely with several city departments including the Mayor’s office, Rec, and others. Through the city we also have an active partnership with the county’s trail planning organizations, and through our central committee we have a partnership with the local OSU extension.

Anyone wishing to become involved in any way may do so through our Facebook page or by clicking to our Contact Us page on this website.
