Fall Colours in Crothers Woods

October 19, 2014 0 Comments

The fall colors in Crothers Woods in Toronto didn’t disappoint me. When the sun showed up after lunchtime today, a friend and I went for a hike for two hours there. Well, not exactly two hours of hiking; 45 minutes of that were spent in camwhoring. We were worried the sun would be gone behind the clouds, so we took photos as many as we could. Then, on our way back, we had a pact not to stop for photos so we could enjoy our leisurely walk. Now is the best time to explore this 52-hectare woodland that offers hiking and biking trails.

Scroll down to the end for directions on how to get there. Enjoy.
