Part of the Classic East Don loop built by R. Drinkwater... usually ridden east to west.. accessed from Taylor Creek path.. starts with small bridges over some wet sections then the near vertical climb to the top of the ravine ( ~ 30m )... then becomes a flowing trail with the occasional log over and technical sections as you traverse a 50 degree slope ( Classic Don type trail )... short easy section to relax you before the Fall Line decent, now with switchback’s.. keep right to connect to FruitLoops Trail ....
Access Info
Accessed from Taylor Creek paved path or from St Clair E. that way you can skip the Climb....

Order of trail builds starting 1987
1. Taylor Creek park, Fruit loops, training loop, boomerang
2. Bayview to sewage plant
3. Sewage plant to parking lot
4. Parking lot to Overlea, Catalyst was built from there not by me.
5. Pottery Rd to start off Bayview
6. East Don - same time as RA, we worked on each other's trails

Thank you Cyborg for all those trails. Some of those switchbacks are a best to climb 😀

A sincere thanks to Cyborg. Riding in the don is like nothing else. There’s always a challenge when you least expect it. If you ride the don regularly, you improve every ride.
We hope you've been enjoying Trailforks!
