18k - Kennedy/Eglinton/Don Mills/Millwood/Yonge

A point-to-point route from the east end of Toronto's subway system through to Queen's Park.

Note: Parts of this route can be icy in the winter; Overlea Boulevard in particular is very slippery in places.

  • From Kennedy Station (Kennedy Road & Eglinton Avenue East) head west on Eglinton Avenue
  • Turn left (south) onto Don Mills Road
  • Head right (west) on Overlea Boulevard
  • (Optional) Turn left (south) on Thorncliffe Park Drive. Follow it around as it loops around and turn left back onto Overlea
  • Turn right (west) onto Millwood Road
  • Turn left (south-west) briefly onto Southvale Drive then right almost immediately back onto Millwood Road
  • Follow Millwood along to Mount Pleasant Road, then take the first left after Mount Pleasant and head down to Davisville Avenue
  • Turn right (west) onto Davisville Avenue and follow it along to Yonge Street
  • Head left (south) on Yonge Street
  • You can scale the run as desired from here-on. You can finish at:
    • St. Clair subway station (~15.25km total)
    • Summerhill subway station (~15.8km total)
    • Rosedale subway station (~16.5km total)
    • Yonge/Bloor subway station (~17.3km total)
    • Wellesley subway station (~18km total)
  • or turn right on Wellesley Street West and head over to the finish at Queen's Park Crescent

Here's the map and the stats from my run.

TTC Info: This run starts at Kennedy subway station and finishes close to both Queen's Park and Museum subway stations.
