Interactive Schedule

To make it easier to search, filter, and locate walks, we’ve created an interactive map and walk list that brings together key information for each walk in one place. You can browse walks by date, time, neighbourhood, or leader, view locations on the map, and save favourites as you plan your weekend.
 

This tool is intended as a quick reference to help you explore the festival schedule. Please make sure to double check the individual walk page for the most up-to-date details, including specific meetup locations, route information, accessibility notes, and any final updates from the walk leader.

Walk Excel List

To ensure easier access for searching and locating walks, we've provided a viewable Google Sheet listing key information for all walks that are replicated in each walk page below.
