We visited on a May weekend on a nice day and there was plenty of (free) parking avaiable. There were Rangers available at the entrance to the hike (not sure if this is normal, or just because of the toronto open days weekend). They were really helpful and offered great recommendations for the hikes, The hike we chose was fairly easy,although it was confusing at times due to the signage. We very rarely get lost, however on this hike we got lost at least twice and had to back track. But apart from that it was still a great time.

My dog went Wow and Woof!…read more A dog park with a view of a pond full of goose. Close to natural and close to home. 2 fenced area: one for the big dogs and other for dogs that are under 20 lb or senior dogs, both covered by wood chips so no one feet/paws would have got muddy. Rocky wants to meet some girl dogs but sadly we came on a really quiet afternoon and only another male dog dropped by. Here all the dogs are well behaved and it is great opportunity for owners to socialize their dogs and get to know other dog owners in the area. A Doggie Meetup? Rocky now really want to go back when there is going to be some action!

My dog is only 7 months old, so he loves running around in the small dog arena. We have encountered other dog owners too and everyone is so friendly, our dog loves coming to this place. The only reason I took off 1 star is because some people don't pick up their dogs' poo. Not sure why they would do that, but this is an almost perfect park :)

Amazing Place for an Evening Stroll…read more Guildwood Park and Gardens is a nice little spot for a stroll. With nicely kept walking paths, gardens, sculptures and an outdoor stage give it a try yourself. It is also home to the Guild Inn Estate, where you book events and rent it out as a banquet facility. We spent the day exploring the water and were looking for somewhere to take a nice walk just before we left the area. This park is connected to other parks and trails along the Scarborough Bluffs. It's good for groups, families, couples, bike riding and the solo traveller. If you're ever in the area check it out yourself.

Located in Scarborough, this is a great place to wander around, sit and take in the views or admire…read morethe numerous sculptures around. Part of the Scarborough Bluffs technically, it tends to be a bit less crowded. I always enjoy coming here and being able to wander the trails close to the cliffs to take in the water views! And on your way there, see the various sculptures, columns and art work scattered throughout the park. Check out online as there are maps/info that will make sure you don't miss out on any of the art works. Many engagement and family photos are done here. There is even the Guild Inn and the event building for weddings/celebrations etc. The park/trails are clean, plenty of open space to chill on a picnic blanket or have the kids run around. Coming here in fall is spectacular as the leaves changing colours makes it lovely. A hidden gem out in the open :) Plenty of free parking!

I think my dog will definitely give Richmond Hill Off Leash Dog Area a 5+ stars!…read more Richmond Hill off Leash Dog Area, a fenced 3/4 hectare site, is located in Ward 4 on Town-owned open space lands south of Tower Hill Road and just west of Yonge Street. It is contained by a 1.5 m tall chain link fence with a separate small dog area and a double-gated entry and exit area. I really appreciate the stated rules of using the park: all male dogs have to be neutered, no female dogs in heat and no children under 12 years old! The small dog area is for dogs that are under 12 lbs and it is well maintained. My dog had so much fun exploring the area which are lined with wood pieces and played with dogs that are friendly like he is!! The other area where the bigger dogs roamed is huge.... hilly and they can all run wild and explore!! I wish there are more off leash dog park like this, where dogs can enjoy the open area and socialize with others just like children!

Not only is the general fenced off area nice and spacious, but there are lots of hills for the dogs to run around through and picnic tables for the humans to sit at. There is another gated area for smaller dogs as well. I visited on a Sunday afternoon and there was a fair amount of people with their furry friends (maybe around ~10 dogs). Everyone was super friendly! This is definitely a great park for you and your dog if you live close to the Richmond Hill area. You will certainly find me and my little boston terrier back here soon! :)

Unless someone told you about it...you would never know its there. White Spruce Leash Free is a public park that is open to everyone. It's wide open expanse with segregated areas for the general dog public and the small or timid breeds. Picnic tables, covered benches, blue garbage bins pepper the park. A beautiful white spruce tree is the visual and social focal point of the park. The regulars at this park are friendly and most watch their dogs like they watch their children, unlike some parks in the Brampton area. A great place to unwind with your four legged family member. A five star park for me!!
