What to Expect

ActiveDays is all about creating a welcoming space where you can connect with nature on your own terms. Led by engaging guide Kfir Lavi, this experience meets you where you're at – whether that means tackling challenging trails with the group or finding your own quiet spot to reflect and recharge.

This is more than just a day trip; it's a chance to join a community of people who believe the outdoors should be accessible and enjoyable for everyone, regardless of age or experience level. You'll find yourself part of conversations, shared meals, and moments of wonder that only happen when city dwellers come together in nature.

All participants must sign a waiver, which will be provided on the bus. Come ready to disconnect from the digital world and reconnect with the natural one – and with fellow Torontonians who share your desire to explore, move, and have fun outdoors.
