This walk is heavy on stairs (+/- 900), great training for the upcoming hiking season, while staying in the city with all its conveniences. We'll climb the Wheeler Street Stairs twice, first from midway up and later all the way from the bottom, with a stop at Rachel's Playground, of course. We'll have the option for a side trip to a chocolate store and make a stop midway at a Turkish coffee shop. There are lots of flowers in bloom on this walk!
