Sightseeing
It’s a hidden gem in the city to get away from all the noise and crowd. Lots of wild life to be discovered. The local birdwatchers frequent the park especially during migrations season. Also a great spot to see the city skyline.
The best way to explore the park is on a bike. There is a Toronto bike share station at the entrance. A day pass allows you to use the bike for free in 30-minute sessions.

Peaceful place to enjoy the lake. It is a small man-made beach. There tend to be less crowd here. Great resting spot along the Toronto waterfront.

Rent a kayak, canoe, or Stand-Up-Paddle boar and go explore the Humber river. The Humber river flows gently so it is a very leisurely paddle. I have done it a couple times, it’s worth the time.

Awesome view of the city! A great place spend a summer afternoon and don’t miss the summer sunset. Should you want anything to drink or snack on, there is a great coffee shop across the street, Rooster Coffee Shop.

Paved trail goes up the Humber river. There are some small hills along the way. Dedicated trails but will need to share the road with traffic at some section.
