Our 2016 guided walks, sponsored by Team Sheppard Re/MAX, will showcase Riverside’s diverse culture and cater to a wide variety of interests.  All walks are led by local residents and Riverside personalities.

This Walk, happening on May 7th, is also part of the international Jane’s Walk, a global movement of free, citizen-led walking tours inspired by Jane Jacobs. The walks get people to tell stories about their communities, explore their communities, and connect with neighbours.
