    The lake
    Carley R.

    Great local spot in Brampton! They stock the lake with rainbow trout and they have lots of decent fishing spots. You can also buy tackle there and rent boats. The fish are mostly used to worms but they'll bite on a few lures if you're lucky. I believe the entrance fee is about $8 but it's pretty quiet and relaxing so I feel like it's worth it. Dog friendly

    Great place for a family outing and good walk. Enjoyed the view and the nature conservation.

    Treetop trekking!

    Well known as a picnic area for Brampton, this conservation area gets heavily used, especially in warm weather so do expect a crowd. Many of the picnic spots get booked for groups so you need to get there early if you want a spot. There are scads of picnic tables everywhere so they are up for the challenge of handling the crowds and the parking lots are massive. The lake gets stocked with fish so that is a popular activity and the latest thing to do is the zip line and tree top trekking which I've been told is a lot of fun to be darting around up in the tree tops. The zip line goes across part of the lake and could be ok, but looks unimpressive from below near the water as you could easily just jump into the water from the line. It's probably scarier up there though. The other popular thing to do is to rent a pedal boat or row boat. Remember to check the rudder and pedals for operation before leaving as some of the boats are sketchy. You can ask for canoe paddles for the row boat so more than one person can help out as it looks awfully boring otherwise if you're not rowing. The lake is fun to explore the shore line and we saw a large turtle hanging near the shore that let us pet it as well as some large birds chilling too. Most overlooked would be the trails here with friends saying they spent four hours hiking them. There is a map you can get and key yourself to the numbered poles around the park otherwise they are difficult to find which is cool. Some of the park trails go through wetlands so watch out for mosquitoes in the summer. There are frogs around too so watch your step. Some people rode around on mountain bikes but I'm not sure what trails are good for that, so you can ask at the front gate. Great urban park!

    Sherman Falls

    Super easy and accessible, I was here in July so the weather was fantastic and the trail was easy…read moreto navigate. It's a short walk and it is very well marked, a quarter mile walk that I would call "easy" but it is absolutely not handicapped accessible. The falls are stunning. They cascade 17 meters (55 feet) in a low roar and if you are patient, you might manage to be here completely alone. Otherwise, there are people who don't understand how to behave in nature. Do a good deed today. If you have a trash bag in your car, bring it with you and I'll bet you can find a couple of pieces to pack out and dispose of properly. [Review 1459 of 2024 - 137 in Ontario - 22482 overall]

    I was in the area with family in August a couple of years back…read more The trail was really short from the parking lot. The Falls was pretty though a little crowded and busy. There will be people climbing up to the middle level (the landing that sort of cuts the falls in half) and walking in the water. Be careful if you will be climbing or walking through the water. Also, there are giant rocks and logs to sit on. I feel like Sherman Falls is somewhere you go in the autumn. You would see the leaves being colors. There's a small fee enter (around $11/vehicle). It's done through a park kisok. You can use the same parking ticket at Tiffany Falls within around 2 hours or so. The price not too bad for vehicle with at least 3 people. There's lots of parking nearby (compared at Tiffany Falls). If you visit in the afternoon, it's might be a little hard to find a spot.

    A bit more of a hike compared to Sherman Falls but still quite easy and definitely not handicapped…read moreaccessible. There is a parking area out front and it is paid parking. I don't know how well enforced it is, but feel free to give your parking receipt to someone else when you leave. $8 seems a lot for a waterfall! I was here in July so nothing frozen and no fall colors but still magnificent. a 21 meter (64 foot) cascade roars away. The path through the woods is very well marked and easy to follow up it's clear that some folks think it's okay to wander off the path. I stuck to the route and the observation platform. Partly because I'm a rule follow and partly because I'm the clumsy sort that would fall and hurt myself. Leave only footprints, take only photos. And if you can pick up some of the litter that others have left behind, you're a rockstar! [Review 1460 of 2024 - 138 in Ontario - 22483 overall]

    Caledon Trailway - Brickworks along the trail

    Caledon Trailway

    4.7(3 reviews)

    We were staying in Brampton, and we were looking for a trail to ride our bikes on. I was looking at…read morethe Peel bike website, and saw this long squiggle across the foot of the escarpment. I suggested doing this trail to Lee, and we drove to the start in Terra Cotta and off we went. There are a variety of surfaces to this trail, mostly crushed stone, sometimes dirt, and occasionally paved. It winds through the countryside, past an abandoned brick factory, through farmlands, suburbs, and forests, as well as a downtown tourist area. If you've ever driven along Highway 10 towards Orangeville, you have seen the blue arched bridge of the trail path. It's part of the Trans Canada Trail, and one of the pavilions is located near Caledon East. The trail is gentle and mostly flat, although there are a couple of road crossings that are steep, probably because a railroad trestle was removed at some point. There's a lot of opportunities for nature watching, particularly because the trail goes through several nature preserves. I saw quite a few chippies and squirrels, as well as orioles, jays and other birds. I only have a couple of complaints: one is that although there are frequent trash cans along the trail, in a couple of places they were overflowing with garbage, implying that it had been a very long time since it had been cleaned up. This was pretty yucky in my opinion, a bit of a disappointment. The other complaint was that part of the trail was shut down for maintenance/construction, but there were no signs directing cyclists to a detour. We ended up doing what most people were doing: cutting through the fence and going through the construction site. Other than these quibbles, it's a great trail that you should check out if you're in the area.

    @ontrails #YELPGTA #THEGREATTRAIL #INGLEWOOD #TRANSCANADATRAIL…read more You can access this trail via a lot of points - it's actually the first registered section of the Trans Canada Trail. We accessed it through a frail yet charming town of Inglewood, right off of McLaughlin Road. To those staying in Mississauga and Brampton, you can basically take the road straight down to the trail. Apparently, it isn't a hidden secret and tons of people know about this trail. We went at 7 am and saw a few bikers and some walkers. We hiked down with Caesar (my doggo) and it was serene and empty enough that I could let him off leash. We covered about 10km (past hwy 10 and then back). It's an easy hike as the land is pretty flat, a few ups and downs here and there but nothing too rough. It was mostly pebbled path with trees on both sides and some streams of water that Caesar was so KEEN on jumping into. There were 2 concrete bridges we crossed over - all in all it was a great morning walk with the dog. I highly recommend this place.
