Meeting Location & Route

We will be meeting at the Purple Bench at Dewan Park. There are two route options to choose from, both routes will be guided by a route leader.

• Route #1: Comprehensive Loop (25-30 minutes)
  • This route is 1.2km and is a comprehensive loop for high-visibility passing downtown eateries, bars, service locations, and Town Hall, extending into the semi-residential transition area before returning through downtown.
• Route #2: Fully-Paved, Gentle Pace (11-15 minutes)
  • This route is 550m and is ideal for participants using mobility devices, strollers, or preferring a gentler pace.
  • Fully-paved, flat route with minimal elevation change (ramps/slopes)
