Catherine Paquet

Great place to walk dogs and/or jog. Recommend you go early before mountain bikers get on the trails. If you bring a dog, make sure it is up to date with its vaccines - many raccoons, deers, etc.

Daniel Ferreira

Awesome MTB trails in the city, actually the best in Toronto. Some trails pretty technical so watch out new riders. Very muddy if it has rained that week so dress in waterproof. Also in spring if you see any fallen obstacles just push them aside (proper rider etiquette) but very nice trails

Khaterine Alvarez-Rudas

It was amazing. Definitely use the gps and take a picture of the map at the entrance for the first few times you do the trail. Very muddy and lots of steep hills so wear comfy shoes and dont go when its wet.

Toronto has a talent for turning piles of garbage into parks. The islands, Leslie Spit, and Crother's woods. A few years ago the rough trails were graded and paved. There are still lots of places to ride your bike in the rough, but the grade trails are perfect for an easy ride, a run, or a place to let your dog run. It's worth spending a couple hours here.

Paul Leavoy

It's an excellent trail for getting out of the city, particularly during the spring, summer, and fall. If it has been rainy in the previous few days, maybe avoid it. Still, a lovely way to get out of the city within the city, whether you're a cyclist or Walker or runner. Cyclists still need to know this is a walking trail first and the onus is on the cyclists to avoid the walkers. Not the other way around. But still be cautious about overzealous cyclists.

Malay Upadhyay

The best part about this hike in vast spread of green, hills and an abandoned railway track (we hiked for 3 hours!) Is that it's right in the city of Toronto, which makes for a wonderful escape as well as points from where you can see the skyline.

Michael J Bullough

I always enjoy to walk along the Don Valley Trail.

Matthew Pyke

Great hiking and biking trails. Go off path on hikes to find hidden gems. You can connect to the don't valley trails from Crothers.

Wayne W Boodoo

I was on the Don Valley Parkway and spotted the Rainbow Tunnel, which caught my attention, and I ended up at this Trail. It was during a Snow Storm so everything was completely white, covered in Snow, so Beautiful! Mother Nature at Her best! Very easy Hike/Wake. Perfect for a Stroll alone, with a Friend, with the Kids/Family. An amazing Visit...

Nabeel Salloum

Well kept secret. Been going there since I was a boy. The don valley parkway makes it a noisy place so it’s not very popular.

Star Marchment

This whole trail is amazing! There are so many animals to see. After the rain I caught a couple toads. There are also frogs and bunnies and deer and groundhogs. There are a lot of winding trails into the forest as well and we found a strange little shack in the bush! A great for exploring, lots of places for photos and for picnics. Sometimes we see fishers too, it's a really good place to walk your dog and for kids to play. There are a couple fire pits as well

Saad Khan

Its a really nice place to walk with family. If you have a bicycle then bring it with you as well. It has different trails so you can explore it on bi cycle. Highly recommended in Autumns to see the colour of fall. Alot of places for pictures and sound of water stream is really soothing. Even though its just next to DVP but this places gives you a feeling as if you are far from the urban city.

Melissa Anderson

This is a lovely nature walk. It's weird to think that the DVP is right there and you almost feel like the city is miles away. There are marshes and ponds. The rushinf river and apple trees everywhere. Bridges to cross ans tunnels to go through. Birds and flowers everywhere. I even saw a hummingbird for the first time in over a decade.

Kristin Kobayashi

Beautiful little park that runs along/under the DVP, tucked away at the bottom of a hill in a quiet subdivision. Never had a lot of foot traffic when I went, and surprisingly quiet despite the cars whizzing by on the highway just behind the trees. Especially beautiful in the fall when the leaves are changing colour.

Apple Aya

Nice to discover as part of the Don valley system

Michael Tsouroupakis

Great place to take family for a nature hike.

Another hidden walking nature trail in the city, rarely do I see a lot of foot traffic. Bikers, joggers and the rest of us showing up in all seasons to get quiet, relax and unwind. A beautiful space relative to its location. Ease of access from numerous locations. Beautiful all year long, through the changing seasons, a delight to experience year round. As part of my health and wellness protocol over the past two years with Trainer Jo The Academy Fitness (near by) my friends and I have discovered nature again, so we walk daily in all these neat places in the city when getting away is not an option. This parkland has been crucial in regaining my health and reclaiming my body. I have walked up to 3 hours, with much still to discover on this trail that just keeps going. A real find for bikers and other light to heavy active folks. There is a parking entrance but not sure of it’s location. If I see it I will update this post.

Tina Giordanella

This is my first time ever coming to this lovely little park. There are a few nice walking and biking trails and a beautiful area where you can sit on a bench and enjoy the babbling of the East Don River. Right now it's winter so the trees are all bare and there's still a little bit of snow on the ground, but it's still very quiet and relaxing here. I could sit here for hours listening to the sound of the river. I'll be sure to come back in the spring when all of the flowers have bloomed.

Theodore Christopher

This is a great bike/walking path right in the heart of the city. It is so secluded in some spots you would swear you were in the country. The are a lot of nice scenic views of the river. I didn't mind being out there for hours.

Bozmajeh Bedom

Great river walk in the middle of hustle and bustle of the city.

jeff yu

Free parking, free to walk the trails and nice views of natures.

David Lougheed

Very slippery trail right now. Nice day though for a late winter walk. Will return for sure.

Max Perna

Clean walking and biking path. Busy on evenings and weekends in the summer months.

Erin Edwards, In Our Nature

The perfect getaway from urban life. Go for a twenty minute walk or get lost for hours when you need room to breathe. Near North York general hospital and the Canadian college of naturopathic medicine in case you run into some poison ivy on the trail ;)

Taylor Creek Parkway is an oasis of calm in the middle of a busy city. There are plenty of places to walk or picnic. It would be nice, however, if there were more benches available to sit and enjoy nature.

Patricia Krafczek

I have been here many many many times over the yrs .I played and used the bike trails often as a kid growing up close too this park .The atmosphere is beautiful and its great too explore all yr round .Winter the pine trees full with snow and during the Fall months the colours r spectacular .Bring your camera .

Keri Arzaluz Castro

A great place to go for a walk with tranquil environment or to cycle all the way to the Ontario Science Center or Downtown from Victoria Park Station!

Aislinn Ford

Love this park. Multiple different trails/options and easy to navigate. Everyone mostly walks their dogs off leash which is great if you have a friendly dog. People who have not so friendly dogs are good at keeping them leashed.

justin Gishoya

Great place to ride a bike. I love taking long walks here. It's calming and refreshing.

Geoff Argue

Great park, there's room for everything/everyone and some small wildlife. Only complaint is there seems to constantly be construction so paths/or bridges are taped off. Watch out for cyclists flying down the paths too.

Bhakti Ajegaonkar

Beautiful nature walk inside the city... Best for cycling.

Joe Laine

A great place to step out of the city, right in the middle of the City.

Bruno Rinaldi

This park is huge and beautiful. Perfect for picnics and outdoors activities. During spring time is gorgeous since the cherry blossom season. It can get a bit busy after lunch time, so if you prefer a calm place, make sure you get there early. And please, don't leave your garbage on the ground. Bring a plastic bag with you and let's keep our public areas clean =).

Aimee Ruggeri

Seriously!!!! Probably the most beautiful park in Toronto. High park is set in the fabulous rolling Hills and a central Toronto area. Not only is it always lush and beautiful (even in the winter) it's absolutely refreshing. The nice thing about high park is that most of the time you can go off when the trails yourself and you don't have to stay on a beaten path. watch out for the high park cherry blossoms when they come however be careful this attraction brings pretty much every single person in Toronto into the park! Try to pick a day that's not as busy as a Saturday or Sunday to view this special event. a side note is that my husband says that a lot of Pokemon come up in this area and he's found several people to do raids against with. We've both even done raids together with others in this park. Everyone here in this area seems pretty sweet. (If your into games). There are several beautiful landmarks as well as a great history lesson in this park. Also the squirrels are extremely friendly oh, did I mention the zoo? also the restaurant however I will leave a separate post based on the restaurant ....

Michael Grover

Beautiful park in the west end. Easy access by transit, and right off the highway. Lovely pond and open spaces, and wooded areas too. Includes a small zoo and theatre (Shakespeare in the Park) in the summer. Neighborhood around the park is great too. Definitely worth spending a day here if you are in Toronto.

Roger Lascorz

Neat park with a lot of nature. It can get visited all year for free. It is clean and not too loud. This place is specially charming when all of it can explored due to nice weather. A lot of nice people and cute dogs. Also nice for biking, walking or hanging out.

K Turtlepie

Wow, what can I say about high park. It hold very special place in my life... something incredible happened here.. Its beautiful. Biggest in Toronto. Lots of activities you can do with family and friends. I like to those ducks. Quack Quack Quack... Quack... Wear sun block and bug spray.. Trails for bike ride,jogging, long romantic walks.. benches to see water and ducks or peaceful sitting away from crowd.. Have lots of fun.. and make memories like we did...

Margarita Keimakh

Love bringing my toddler here! We love the little “zoo” area and that the water/beach is just a short walk (or drive) away. One of our favourite areas to come nice and early during the weekend as we’re not a fan of the huge crowds this park draws later in the day.

natalia jakubek

Went skating, free skate rink is open all day. Played in the snow with my daughter. Sunned myself against the pool building. Then photographed the winter gardens. I love the exceptional Dawn redwood specimens. Love this place if I'm looking to spend time outdoors.

EUGENE SALDANHA

A public park with free entry for all ages. I visited High Park in winter and found it difficult to walk around as it was snowing and there were strong winds blowing.There is a lake in the park which is used for skating in winter and some of the slopes are used for snow tobogganing,snow tubing and snow sledging. Free parking is available and there is the Grenadier Cafe serving all day breakfast,snacks, cold and hot beverages. There are a number of toilets all round the park.There is wheelchair parking. I hope to visit the park in spring and summer to admire the cherry and apple blossoms.

Erin Edwards, In Our Nature

Great getaway spot near a busy intersection (Don Mills and Sheppard - Fairview Mall). I like the trails here and it is meant for easy strolling.

Jaclyn Mistry

Love me some green space in the middle of the city

Midhun Harikumar

A beautiful trail around 3 miles long between Duncan Mills road and shepherd and Leslie streets. It is good for biking or walks. This trail closely follows the East Don River and has a beautiful wooden bridge. Near the 401 there is constant sound of traffic and other parts you can hear birds chirping. It looks like there are a few spots where you can go down to the river and there are life buoys on trees near such places.

Master iOqY

While it's a short trail, hopefully it stays put amidst major developments in the area. It's about 2.5 kms on the SE corner of Leslie and Sheppard behind NYGH and ends on the south side by Duncan Mill Road. It's a nice walk, fairly well maintained and paved. It's odd to see wildlife and birds by the 401 but you do see them. Named after a former councilor of NYork council that improved Parks and Rec in the city.

Alex Roy

Great bike trails, rode through quite quickly though so didn't get to see too much of it. The stream running through it is nice at certain points of you can look past the brown sludgey colours of the creek... and the smell. Ride fast through those parts. Also ride through with your mouth closed and safety glasses on as the swarms of bugs are like clouds of locusts.

Jeremy Yeung

Just a typical Trail in Toronto I must say that it is well maintained and that when you go off path there's quite a lot to see

Dragos Luca

Just walk or bike to North... and you loose the city

Johnson Kanagaraj

It is one of the conservation parks inside the city of Toronto, Canada. A beautiful river passes through the valley and it is a spectacle during summer and rainy days and during winter with its splendor. Seeing is believing and one should make it a point to visit during winter and summer. You have trails running through the area for people to go about this area. You have a good parking lot. Occasionally one can see deer, rabits and fox.

Dan Y

There’s an information centre at the entrance with helpful staff. We did the Vista Trail and it was a lovely and very quiet trail. There is a observation deck with views into the forest below. The beginning of the trail is not very well covered so it can get hot if it’s a sunny summer day.

Steven Branco

Had an amazing hiking experience today at the Rogue National Urban Park. The Park team was super aware of the surroundings, informative and friendly. We saw a red robin come down on a picnic table, and got to see a beautiful monarc following us along the trail. Highly recommend this park for anyone looking for a great hike, or run through nature. Side note, Park Bus is offering a free shuttle from downtown Toronto all summer, so for those of you in the city looking for an escape from the city.

Jonathan Londono-Urrea

A not so challenging area to get around in terms of hiking, but it definitely doesn't take away from it's natural scenery! Lots of different areas to walk through and check out, and saw many people with their dogs & families which is always lovely to see!

HOWARD SHORE

Welcome To The Beare Wetlands I was on a group hiking tour today along the Orchard Trail out in the Twyn Rivers area and during the walk we stopped by the Beare Wetlands. I tried to take pictures of the snapping turtles, but I am Not even sure if I saw them or Not! I want to personally Thank the Toronto Region Conservation Authority for hosting a Very Nice Hike Today back on Sunday, August 5, 2018. Sincerely yours, Howard Paul Shore Visitor Executive, Volunteer Writer For Google And Tripadvisor Websites /HPS

John Williams

easy and short hike within thr city. not bad at all.

Nadine C.

Wheelchair accessible portapotties, lots of parking, great vistas, quiet forest 🌳 and varied forests. The only drawback is the highway is close, you definitely hear it and the loop is closed so you need to track back. Other than that it's witchy and wonderful.

Great place to take your pets for a beautiful stroll through the woods. Path is nice and open, lots of room to walk. Great place for some bird watching too. Some beautiful Red tailed hawks call it home there.

Ana Roa

It's an oasis of nature in the city. The trails are well maintained, signposted and not too narrow. Thank you to all the volunteers that make this possible.

Paul

The trail is still quite pleasant and walkable even after a last nights heavy snow at -10 Celsius degrees , as a lot of outdoorers has already been there and walked the snow down/out, so the snow is not too deep to walk, also somewhat firm and easy to step on but not to the extent of slippery, whereas other trails in the outskirts of the city with less trail goers can still have quit deep snow which can make it much harder to walk long distance.

Nikita Lebedev

Great little trail. Love it in any season but in summer it's the best. Not too many people.

Pedro Salomão

Awesome park and creek in the middle of the city, right under your nose. Trails are well maintained and very relaxing. Great for biking, jogging, strolling around and even meditating. I like coming here to watch the foliage change as the seasons go.

m. taylor

Bountiful and beautiful trails for hiking, walking and jogging. I wish more people would use these trails rather than jog on the sidewalks. Joggers get in people's way on sidewalks, because they do not have the common sense to jog on the right of the sidewalk and pass on the left--no etiquette.

Lucía Subatin

It is amazing that this park and creek are in the middle of the city. The trail is very well maintained and cleared, though it imposes some effort on cyclists. The walk from the beginning to Don Valley is about 4 km. Very quiet although there were other people jogging and walking dogs.

Espe Rubio Anaya

Good place to get out to the routine and discover new paths, get in contact with the nature in breath fresh air.

Carolyn Legere

Visited this park on April 13th and it was a beautiful, sunny day. My first time visiting this park and found it to be clean and a good mixture of wider, paved roadways and trails for walking and riding a bicycle. There is a lovely stream ( perhaps a tributary of Humber ?) that meanders through the park which adds some interest to the walk . Did not explore the entire park but would definitely visit again with a picnic lunch in hand !

Maud Hood

Extremely beautiful area. The parking is next to each picnic area which makes it very convenient and also makes sure you have parking for all the people at the picnic, unlike parks where the parking is difficult to find. There is an entry fee but well worth the convenience.

Andy Mack

Great place for hikes, picnics, soccer games and bike rides. The trails range from easy to medium level difficulty. Always recommend trying out Boyd.

Leslie Chow

I love walking my dog at Boyd (beware of ticks though, you might find a couple on your dog if you let them roam). It's a nice change from just walking around your neighborhood. Especially in the fall, when the leaves are changing colour and the leaves are on the floor, it is a beautiful walk. There are all some easy hiking trails that can be found deeper in the forest. It's also a great place to run and bike. There are also a lot of picnic areas that can be used during the summer. You do need to pay a fee per person when driving into the park but there is a free parking lot just outside the entrance. Overall this park is wonderful to visit to get some fresh air.

George Fromunda

They don't let you ride mini bikes, launch model rockets, do fireworks (legal times, july 1st at 8:00pm). Basically they limit anything fun. The only thing you can do is walk or have a BBQ. I'm pretty sure to have a picnic or a BBQ, you need to pay. In the winter there is a hill you can sled on but its filled with careless parents. The hill isn't that big too, its mediocre. would not recommend to anyone who wants to do anything fun. better to go to a public park to do the above mentioned.

Sherry Doan

A great green space in this area to be with nature. Free parking available. Walk about 500 m to bypass the cement and industrial. Signage to guide the way to different paths. Pond, trees, birds and you.

Ellen Richardson

Blessed with a beautiful day, we recently took part in a club picnic at Boyd park. The area we rented was well serviced, clean, well-stocked with picnic tables, and also had a covered area if the weather turned bad. Washrooms, available in a permanent solid bricked structure, were clean and working well. The staff was very helpful. Apparently, the individual who organized the event was to be given a thank you envelope filled with discount coupons upon arrival. When the staff found that this envelope was not given to the organizer, they came to the site with the envelope and gave it to the organizer. We throughly enjoyed our day at the park

Tash Henry

I love this place . The trails are good not too hard and not too easy . The scenery is beautiful.Its a hidden gem!

Peace BeUponYou

Beautiful park, nice walking or bike trail. Kids loved sandy beach and picking sea glasses...

Patricia Krafczek

Beautiful park grounds .. Great views for photos . Lovely scenery and feels private...there is also a beach

Christopher Karniej

Wen't here to explore a more secluded portion of the Scarborough Bluffs. The scenery is exemplary. Taking a star off for the plethora of fire ants around a large portion of the bluff and beach area. Also another for what appears to be several male 'naturalists' who seem to roam the beaches alone....

Umair Malik

Beach is nice and very peaceful. Free parking. I went on Sunday and still it was not that busy just few people and kids playing with water. There no maintenance of this place whatsoever. You’ll see bottles cans and garbage everywhere so be careful. Other than that it’s very nice and quite beach.

Simone Si

Beautiful trail on top of the bluffs and access to beach below. Very nice park to walk in. Connected to other waterfront parks by paved waterfront trail.

Aislinn Ford

Amazing place. Can walk on the beach or on the trails. A decent walk to where colonel Danforth park ends at the lake.

Wynneth

Not long after the train tracks there's a parking lot on your right. We had originally parked there and saw at least 2 baseball diamonds. This didn't seem like the right place for a trail right beside the lake so we got back in the car and drove down the road for another couple of minutes. There's a treatment plant and another parking lot. We parked there and followed the paved trail towards, what we hoped, was the lake. It was very foggy that afternoon so the lake and sky blended in together and looked the same. A bit of the way down we started to see a small strip of sandy beach. We saw lots of geese but no other wildlife. If you continue on the trail you'll come to a fork. The trail that continues alongside the lake is to the Port Union Waterfront Park.

Chris Meunier

Toronto has over 1000 parks. That said, East Point Park is not well known. This park is a bird sanctuary with a few main trails and a pond that has a super cool rusted steel concrete sitting area. In addition toy can access the lake and experience pebble beaches that change to sand littered with lots of interesting drift wood. Also there is even read sand. And the beach walk has amazing views of the bluffs in varying stages. But use caution inn the upper trails as the bluffs are naturally eroding and can fall. It is best to stay behind the safety barrier. Also, if you are in the beach make sure you get off while there is still light and don't get caught in a storm as some times tides can tarp you against the bluffs.

Booyaka Stubbs

Great place for a family walk or bring your favorite four legged friends. If you do bring your dog, keep them close as there is wildlife roaming freely like coyotes. Nice open spaces to wander off and get lost in the scenery. Great place for bird watching too. Deer have been seen roaming about as well. Highly recommended

Victoria Mclean

This part of the Rouge is a beautiful part, you have nice trails and might get lucky to see the train go by. My son and his friends liked seeing it ! its not far walk but it makes you feel like your up north for a bit. its great for alone time or with the family, dogs are welcome too.

Ella White

I photographed an engagement session here recently, and the trail is absolutely beautiful. Took us about an hour to get all the way around. Word of warning- if you're going in the summer months bring bug spray because we got EATEN ALIVE!!!

Alex Hacker

A great and beautiful spot to find nature without going too far from the city. On many occasions I have seen deer, coyotes, fish, and lots of birds and rabbits. However, this is a hot spot for deer legged ticks which can carry Lyme disease. Every time you go through the rouge, especially off trail, remember to check your entire body for ticks afterwards. I would not reccomend bringing dogs through because it will be much harder to spot the ticks.

Renee Wei

One of my favourite parks to visit in Toronto. I particularly enjoy the ridge trail. However, my dog got ticks and got sick after a visit last summer. We haven't been back since.

Tracy Neiser

Trails are very muddy at this time. Lots of erosion occurred since last year. Scenery is still sparse.

Pheebs Wong

If you like hiking and live in Toronto, this’s probably the best place to start your adventure. My family and I planned to go hiking on a mild spring day. We had completed 3 trails after 4 hours since we’ve a kid tagged along with us. Anyway I was pretty satisfied with our short journey on the day. The rivers and the trails aren’t difficult for beginners, we just need to follow the signs. Other than that, the view from top of the hill was extremely gorgeous as I couldn’t stop my phone from taking the best angle of it. Now guess what, the best part was when I bumped into 2 water snakes. It wasn’t terrifying, they might stare at you, stay calm and you’ll be fine. I’ve been hiking in Rouge Park for more than 3 times and on the whole, they’re by far one of the best places I would definitely recommend to a friend or family member who enjoys hiking or biking just like me.

This ravine serves as a great way to connect neighbourhoods together and to the great Don valley park system. It allows for a beautiful escape from the city, with lovely scenery to ease one's soul from the rush of the city.

Doron Yakovlev-Golani

It is a very nice walk in winter, a bit slippery thought

Sai Nag

The best trail in the nature ,.... easy to ride and enjoy with the silence and greenery

Tatiana Esse

Lovely hike in the city! A rare luxury. Could be done all year long. Take your children pets or simply yourself and go for a walk. Note: Could be muddy dress appropriately.

Matthew Goulet

What an amazing Park all year round I just love this place and never get tired

We often hang out there. My 3 year old loves to go out for walks in the woods with us, look out for some treasures. Beautiful place in the heart of city for us to access and be in the lap of nature.

Harliv Narula

Pretty awesome place, if you want to getaway from the city hustle. Moreover, stunning views and great place to enjoy nature at it's best!

eric fleming

Beautiful place for a stroll. The gardens are stunning, and change with the seasons. Have seen deer and rabbits enjoying the paths. My favourite area is the cactus garden. If they charged admission ( no charge) I would happily pay. They only charge for wedding photography.

renu mann

A beautiful eco-friendly building. The walking tours and workshops for kids are great. The arboretum is well maintained keeping the much needed wilderness intact. It is great for a walk and photography in all seasons

Dan Kim

The Humber aboretum is a well.maintained park. The staff maintains it all year long. The trails that exist there are nice to travel on. Only been there during the winter but I've found some nice spots to shoot video and take photos.

Lady Mensah

The green life in this place wasn't present due to the winter. But that didnt stop its beauty from shining through the ice and snow. Its opened to the public and the students were very respective during our use of the location.

Frank Steele

A lovely park to enjoy year-round entertainment. Contains a great trail system that runs down one of the many ravines that runs through Toronto. The scenery is magnificent and right near the subway, offering easy access for a place to walk one's dog, have a fun hike, play some sports, or do whatever one feels content with.

Verônica Maggioli

I love Balfour Park! A quiet place of peace in the middle of all the buildings and avenues.

Ольга Рахимова

Wonderful park in midtown. Many different trails and routes. Perfectly suitable for walking with a dog. Here you can hide from the noise of the city and feel at one with nature.

Dolly Kao

Great park in midtown. Too bad half of it is closed for construction and that all of it will close in August 2019.

David Onichuk

Nice park for a brisk walk.

Paul Onwubuke

Get away from the noise streets into a beautiful peaceful ravine, luscious greens, trees and fresher air. Weather spring, summer or autumn love the different season and colors.

Dolly Kao

I love going here with my dog. Good place to throw a ball. There's also a water fountain, bathroom, and ravine nearby.

Dan Proulx

Took a short cut through the park and got lost, had to climb a fence to get out.

Mohsen Daneshgar

It's my favorite park for picnic and nature gathering! It has 4 large sites with barbecue and facilities and has designed very well. The best part is being connected to the untouched nature from 3 dimensions.

Jeff Kline

Very nice park to walk and bike. Nice scenery and wildlife. It is common to see deer around the river and salmon swimming upstream to spawn.

Nadeem Khan

A quite large park with awesome views and trails. It has a play area and splash pad for kids. Green fields offer a nice place for playing outdoor games and enjoying some quality time with families and friends. Good for huge gatherings and bar b que and roasting corns. You can bring your leashed dogs for a walk here. Sit beside the stream and take some selfies. Enough parking space is available here.

kellie rai scott

It is a beautiful park with lots of picnic areas and lots of room for children to run and play.its well maintained.would highly recommend going here

Megaadriank .

Saw 8 Deers and a beaver today, awesome to see these animals so close to home while doing my walk

Sergio 2018

Very big park. In the park you will definetly meet a deers and rabbits. Also there is a place for BBQ. The best place to go with family spend time away from loud downtown. Morningside park is like a small forest.

Mario Berardi

Beautiful park to go for a walk or a picnic. My favourite park in Scarborough easily.

Adam G.N.

A forest🌲 within a city, big enough fields the hulk was filmed in the back 40.

Sergey Privalov

Great and picturesque trail. It smells great with all those pine trees. Few perfects spots to make beautiful pictures. Not very long, can be made by a child.

Kristina Laukkanen

Perfect trail all year long. HIGHLY recommend walking/running spikes for the winter/icy days. Found a pair for $25 on Amazon 😁

Jumana Ch

Gorgeous walking trail in Rouge Valley, close to Toronto zoo. You can sign up for free guided walks online throughout the year. The fall foliage is beautiful and the volunteers are very knowledgeable. You can do your own walk in the marked trail as well. Safe and peaceful

Tracy Neiser

Very muddy trail. Scenery still very sparse. Lots of erosion occurred since last summer.

Beata P

Pleasant views and long walking trail, not to easy up the hill.

Candy Tsang

Lovely River walk with great views. Even saw the rail go by. Not paved so can be muddy in some parts. Free parking.

Joel R

Wonderful walking trails, different directions that loop up and down the valley.

Joseph Nicholson

Great trail. Lots of versatility. Medium difficulty depending how you are with inclines. Otherwise a great fun trail for the whole family.

Jim Patterson

In winter the gate to the park closed so ypu need to park at the entrance and walk in. Fairly steep hill which may be a challenge for some. Park is follows Highland Creek south to Lower Highland Creek park and eventually to Lake Ontario. Very easy walking, mostly paved but some areas of gravel. Snow is not removed in winter. Washrooms are closed in winter. Nice place for a walk and to get away from the city. I would describe it as a ravine walk, no gardens a only a few benches. The main area has some picnic tables and benches.

David MacNeal

I have been going here for at least 30 years, great place for a nice relaxing walk with nature all around. Found an interesting hidden brick structure under ground.

Tom Rataj

A relatively new off-leash dog park, with plenty of room for several groups of dogs to play. At least a dozen parking spaces beside it, as well as paved park trails nearby if walking is preferred.

Michael Smith

Great park for hiking, rollerblading, xcountry skiing along Highland creek park

Jianrong Jin

Beautiful trail along Highland Creek

K. Johnson

Really great park to hike and explore nature. Trail follows the river and there are many opportunities to get near to the water. If you continue along the paved path, it automatically connects to East Point Park and Port Union Waterfront Park. Can reach down to lake Ontario in about an hour at a good walking pace. Great for biking and walking. There is a lot of space available for parking. There is a lot of wildlife that you can see too. I have seen a deer, a garter snake, toads and species of birds including kingfisher, different types of warblers and shore birds. Many people walk or cycle along the trail throughout the day but it is best to visit in the evening or early morning. Can get very hot on a summer day.

Bridgette Leeder

Great place to escape the city, inside the city.

Omar Myers

My brother in law hosted a reunion here in the late summer. It worked well. Recommendations: pay attention to the road signs as the GPS didn't direct us to the access road but instead to somewhere we could see but not enter; wear outdoors shoes.

Justin Mistry

I really enjoy this park. There are tennis courts, two playgrounds, a baseball diamond, tobaggan hill, and hiking/biking trails behind the park through the don valley.

K. Johnson

Great hiking trails. Saw a deer and small fish. Lots of birds. Paved path follows the river and smaller trails lead closer to the water. Bridges and pathways are clean and not too crowded but not secluded either. You'll see other people frequently as they walk/cycle through the park.

Alex Jivin

Very nice and quiet park.

Jim Kang

A baseball/softball diamond with stands, a playground for kids and tennis courts. These three public tennis courts are very good as public courts go, with an even and unbroken nicely finished surface, real nets and lighting. There is lots of open green space here but the best part of the park is the adjacent heavily wooded river valley with trails running through it. Enter the trail system on the south side of the park. You can walk for many kilometres on the interconnected trails to different neighbourhoods and most of it by a river or creek. Great any time of the year for walking or cycling. These interconnected valley parks and trails are some of the best things about living in this part of the city. See you on them!

Keith

Great park for a run although it has a ton of rolling hills which can make it challenging. Parking is on the residential streets and not during work hours. Nice place for a walk if you are in the area.

Paul Mitchell

Nice trail. Paved for walking and biking

David Mor

Nice park, lots of grass.

megaminduu .

Such a gorgeous park! Very long hiking trail with multiple options to different routes. Highly recommend to take the abandoned off trails, some of them will lead you to stairs or small lake! Will definitely come back to explore more!

Alex C

Great place to go for a nice quiet walk with friends, kids, or a dog. Close to the city, and fairly well kept. A lot of people don't stay to the trail, but try your best to do so as going off the trail takes you into the nature reserve and areas where wild life should feel protected in. There appears to be plans to expand further and connect the trails together.

John Parrott

Very easy and well groomed trail. Good for families and the like. There are a number of unofficial but well used trails along the river that are a bit more scenic but use at your own risk. I think this would be a good spot for snowshoeing come winter.

conesandbones

This place is so cool for walking trails and just getting lost. Just be careful my dog got ticks from here. Make sure to check your self if in the area lots of deer. Love watching salmon swim up river. New is the wheelchair out house it just made me chuckle it is at the bottom of a hill on the grass. Not sure what was wrong with putting it near the parking lot.

Suzanne Evans

a week ago it was still a bit wet icy or muddy in spots but once its dry im sure it will be great.

MrMapersaud1

Good to stop and take a look, especially in the Fall.

andrelyn101

If you like nature, its the place to be

Angie Pearce

Great walking trails. Lots of nature to see.

Geoffrey Hosein

Great quick trails to walk thru wifey and I did it in 30 mins with a 7 mth baby strapped to her chest..we werent going for time but the rain was creeping in and it was close to huggybear bedtime. Nice flat ground for the most part big wheel strollers recommended..stay on trails there are plenty of lyme infected ticks..lots of bugs as it was humid today..but in general wear plenty because this area is green and lush full of bugs and mosquitos. There is also an open field just as you enter past the yellow gates from parking lot, which by the way can hold 10 to 15 cars at most. Phenomenal park teeney tiney parking space. Very shady so even on hot bright days you will be cooler than mc hammer in his prime..area is close to toronto zoo and other RNUP locations Bob Hunter and Rouge conservation park and just bit further is Glen Rouge Campground..enjoy this wonderful peace of nature right in the 6ixx.
