HIGH PARK REVIEWS

This park is big with plenty to do; playscape, splashpad, soccer field, bike riding, trails to walk or run, beautiful grounds for a blanket to read, benches to people watch, picnic tables, restrooms, tennis, the pool was empty, it says it has a ice skating rink that was not there, the fountain was empty, there are tons of different kinds of squirrels whom do not seem to fear people, many ducks, a restaurant, food trucks, dog area, and beautiful plants all in a big circle.

High Park is a fantastic urban oasis in Toronto. It's massive, with plenty of green space to relax in, gardens to explore, and even a zoo! There's something for everyone here, whether you're looking for a place to picnic, go for a hike, or just enjoy the outdoors. I highly recommend checking it out!

Beautiful landscapes in both winter and summer! A variety of activities for the whole family!

ROUGE NATIONAL URBAN PARK REVIEWS

Couldn't explore much of it in one visit as there's so much to trail if one wants to. But the visitor guide staff was very helpful and parking was free so that's a plus. Not sure for how long they keep it free though. Ended up going to Vista trail and then going down to the creek. Spent most of the time there and it was very peaceful. I would suggest use some bugs and mosquito spray just in case and bring your own water and juice. Porta potty was there as well but didn't try it. Spent almost 2 hours of trail and then returned. Overall, nice place for some quality time with friends and family.

This is currently my favourite place to go hiking. I’ve only been here twice but I love this place. You can get away from all the noise around you and fully enjoy nature, hearing the sounds of birds and the flow of water. I only ever entered from the side close to the Toronto zoo. It’s a true get away as they’re no picnic tables on that side, only a couple benches here and there.

This is a beautiful trail during the fall. You'll be awed at the all orange colour inside the woods. Very well kept and it's actually crowded during weekends. But it's a must visit place in fall if you are in Scarborough and nearby. The walkways are dogfriendly and it has some playground for kids as well.

WILKET CREEK PARK REVIEWS

I always forget how great this park is. Huge fields, great running path, and workout spots along the way.

Nice place to explore and see nature during the summer there is a washroom area and stuff.

Beautiful trail along a stream with lots of greenery. Very refreshing place!
