    This is a great outdoor space in the GTA. Great experiences gor familues with young a children with the zoo, splashpads, pool, courts and playgrounds. Cherry blossom season is VERY popukar so plan accorginhly, take transit and take a ride on the trackless train ( $6 for kids and seniors, $9 for adults)

    High Park is a little bit of a journey to get to from downtown, especially if you don't have a car, but it's well worth the journey. The grounds are gorgeous, there are great hiking trails, and you can even get some gorgeous views of the sunset while you're there. Highly recommend.

    If you are a dog this is the place to be. There are different aspects to this park but if you're a canine you can't go wrong. This place is HUGE. There are many trails you can go on with your animal friend. There seems to be many gated and non-gated areas where I saw dogs off leash. This place is so large or I'm just geographically challenged that when I wanted to exit the park I took a trail or two that led me in a circle to my original starting point. Not good.

    We went for the small zoo and the kid's playground. My little one just loved the playground, didn't want to go. Then we went to the zoo, because it would close at 4pm as the website says. The zoo is small, but still have a few different kinds of animals that staying outdoor, enjoying the sun, I guess they are all winter animals. High park is big, and we heard that cherry blossom would be in middle of April this year. We probably will come again.

    I think High Park is one of the best public parks in Toronto. It is a huge 339 acres - I admit I've gotten lost before but I'm also directionally challenged haha. I have many fond memories of High Park growing up. It wasn't too far from where I lived in my childhood so I've enjoyed many summer days, picnics, and birthday parties at the playgrounds. Even now the castle playground feels like a sight to behold and the free mini zoo is always a treat to visit. The zoo is a great way to pass time and has a pretty good selection of animals to visit from bison, deer, llamas, peacocks, and more. It's amazing that it's still free admission in this day and age. Of course, there's always the seasonal April/May cherry blossom bloom. A wonderful, but very crowded time to visit. If you can make it out early in the day then the sights are truly wondrous. Definitely come by High Park if you haven't been. I feel like High Park is a must visit as a Torontonian!

    It's Sakura season! The park is closed to cars right now. They are only allowing TTC HandiTrans, service vehicles and bikes right now. I recommend parking near Parkside and High Park in order to see as much as possible but also to avoid a long uphill walk back to your car if you take one. The park is free! It's gorgeous. Great place for mobile dogs. I would avoid bringing bracycephalic breeds unless you have a stroller for them that you can push over hilly sometimes muddy paths.

    The trees!!!

    Absolutely stunning park in the heart of Toronto with an abundance of nature and an excuse for escapism from the busy buzz of city life into calming bliss. Going here in the fall time is particularly recommended, with the colourful trees and cosy vibes. Plenty of spaces to have a picnic (coupled with a nice hot drink seeing as cafes aren't too far) or just to spend an hour or two getting lost in. There are washrooms on site as well, and also bikes to rent if you want to explore the park at a faster pace! Loved it!

    High Park during the autumn season is a must-see, especially if you're looking to capture that vibrant Fall picture of you, your significant other, friend or family. I visited on 16 October and the park was simply beautiful. The park was filled with not only orange and pink trees, but with families who were simply enjoying their Sunday.

    High Park is a large park in Toronto. There are hiking trails, playgrounds, restaurants, a small zoo, and more -- much more. When my husband and I visited High Park, we unfortunately didn't have much time to explore the park (and it was too hot to walk around for long), so I can't give a proper review. However, from what I have read and what little I did see, High Park deserves at least four stars. Visiting from Vancouver, it was nice to walk around a park and not be run over by cyclists or attacked by coyotes*. If I have the opportunity to visit Toronto again, I hope I will have more time to walk around High Park. *Coyotes attacking people in Stanley Park has been a major news story for the past several months.

    First time at highpark. The cherry blossoms were at the early blooming stages but that didnt stop the crowd. The park as fairly packed. Apart from the blossoms I absolutely loved the city views across the lake. This was my favorite

    Its a beautiful place for your normal daily picnic or family time. The view of the pond besides is mesmerizing. Interacting with nature at its best. Got to see some new species of flowers and birds. The park connects with sunny side beach within a walking distance. And close to subway up north and streetcar and bus service down south.

    Visited this during the early Fall season, and it was my first time! It's an amazing place filled with beautiful animals, most of which I haven't seen before. They have a "dogs off leash" section and me being a dog lover, I felt I was I heaven when dogs walked pass by and said hello. 99% of dogs who were off leash were well behaved. The park is very spacious. Lots of parking spaces (fee is required). Washrooms within distances. There are some places to eat but were closed when I was there. Oh! Before I forget. They have a transportation that looks like a train but driven on the road. They take you around the park for a small fee. I believe about 10 people can go into this. I definitely can't wait till next year to visit this place again.

    A couple weeks ago it was a crisp sunny day and I wanted to get outside for a walk. I headed to High Park this afternoon ... I lived near the park from 1996 to 2001 and had spent a lot of time walking through it. I don't get there as often as I'd like. I had a lovely 6.5km walk ... the leaves on the trees were changing and were gorgeous to see. I took the Queen streetcar and got off at Colborne Lodge Drive and headed north along Grenadier Pond.

    Park with lots of things to do.

    See all

    It's a great place to be active too - walking/jogging/hiking/rollerblading/cycling trails, tennis courts, outdoor pool, etc.

    Yorkville

    Yorkville Park is located in "the Village" of Yorkville on the south side of Cumberland Street…read morerunning between Avenue Road and Bellair Street. Unlike most parks, you'll find no grass or benches here. What used to be a parking lot is now filled with gardens, native plant species, prairie meadow, marsh, and trees. A silver-coloured metal structure houses a waterfall bordering one side of a courtyard. At the other end you'll find a rock "outcropping" (a 650 ton rock, coaxed out of the Canadian Shield and reassembled in the park) The park draws many visitors, tourists and is a great place for celebrity sightings during the Toronto Film Fest. Workers (like me!) eat lunch and people-watch at the bistro tables and chairs scattered throughout the park.

Yet, it has a rare, and unexplainable beauty to it. From across the street you'll notice an array of photographer's snapping, model's posing, kid's playing, youngsters tanning, business men and women talking shop, and not to mention the view of some of the most expensive cars money can by doing their Tour Du Yorkville. Its a place of many wonders

The pond is surrounded by a red mosaic-tiled sitting wall; of course, it had to be red in colour! Adjacent office towers get a high aerial vantage point to view the heart in its entirety. The park occupies 8,100 square metres (2 acres). This site used to have a circular eastbound off-ramp from the Gardiner Expressway, and was called York Street Park. The major concrete structure has been converted into a lush park. It is quite a departure from the concrete jungle of downtown Toronto. Two mature trees have been retained, and new trees have been planted lining the sidewalks along the perimeter. One of the trees, a Northern Catalpa tree, is on its own island on one side of the pond. There are bronze-cast native-Canadian animal sculptures around the park: beaver, bear, fox, squirrel, rabbit, opossum, owl, woodpecker, etc. On the southeast corner, there is an outdoor seating area, great for relaxation or a snack/meal break. On the northeast corner, there is a dog off-leash area. There are park benches and a water bottle filling station. There is no children's playground. There is no free WiFi. The park is wheelchair accessible. There are no washrooms. There are expensive paid parking lots. Review 2023-220

I told them you are losing business and their response was "actually we are not", clearly they do not care about my business - their policy is inconvenient and I am going to Playtopia next, amazing customer service and cheaper actually. I hope you keep getting business but better your customer service!
