Travel, Bus & Walks
Free Walk: Mount Pleasant I - June 25.23
Join us for a short walk through this 200-acre cemetery in the middle of modern Toronto. The designer, Henry Englehardt, designed the cemetery like a park with winding roads and 200 species of trees. Along the walk, we will admire the grand tombs of famous Canadians and learn about the graves and the symbolism on the grave markers. The site, particularly in the Spring and Autumn, is breathtaking.
The walk takes place rain or shine and is approximately 90 minutes to 2 hours long.
ROMWalks is organized by ROM's Department of Museum Volunteers to provide support for the Museum. ROM is an agency of the Government of Ontario.
