If you like to Pier out at beautiful views of Toronto, then this is your palace. I mean place…read more Sometimes hosts can palace in different directions, but this is the direction I'm pulling you in. So to speak. This is located at the gateway from Etobicoke into downtown Toronto, and is an absolutely beautiful and truly amazing Park, and is as iconic as it is enjoyable. PPP has great memories for me personally, and is a place which I come back to visit whenever I'm showing someone around Toronto, and pretty much whenever I'm in town.

There is street parking as well as Green P. Usually on a nice day, the area is very busy so parking is hard to find. A handful of restaurants, food trucks one cafe, Tim Hortons closely around.

There were quite a few people out and about so we all had the same idea. We've been to Humber Bay Park East many many times and don't know why we've never gone to Humber Bay Park West, which is less than five minutes from it. There are a couple parking lots and we found a spot in the one in the middle. We walked around a nearby point and then head southwest and ended up at the dog park. Then we turned around and headed to the beginning of the park, doubling back to the car. It's a nice park and we'll be back!

The park has also recently reopened after major improvements to its wetland, boardwalks, bridges, and trails.

I almost don't want to review the area in fear that it will drive even more crowds to the area but…read morethe reality is, this is a beautiful spot just outside of the downtown area, with just spectacular views of the Toronto Skyline and growing restaurant scene to support the growing foot traffic. Definitely busier in the summer months but with the expansion and revitalization of the walking paths finishes late in 2019, this area is just a great area to spend a weekend afternoon or weeknight evening. Dog friendly, children friendly and family friendly with a nearby Saturday farmers market from May to October, this area is a great place to stop by and visit

I went to this park for the first time on a date, and it was absolutely beautiful. The weather was…read moreamazing, nice and sunny. The tall trees were a great place to sit under for some shade and relaxation from the heat. The little strip of water was clear and glistening. There was also a flower garden along the path, such beautiful scenery. The flowers were bright and blooming, so great for a photo-op. The trail is simple and not too long, but absolutely beautiful for a stroll with some coffee in hand. There's also a large hill to watch the sunset, which is a great choice for picnics and relaxing. Definitely need to go back before summer ends!

I went visit with family during the cherry blossoms time in May this year. I was shocked that there…read morewas a zoo in the park. The park was pretty large. The trees were located on the opposite side of where we enter (around Bloor St and Keele St/Parkside Dr.). It was cool but very crowded at that time of year. I feel like I would have a better experience if I randomly visited when it's not cherry blossom season. If you are on the grass and near the trees, watch out where you walk. Volunteers put out short wooden boxes with mesh coverings over the turtle egg nests.

Love it! What a wonderfully accessible trail that nearly all riders will enjoy. We started the…read moretrail at Mimico Waterfront Park and biked to the Toronto Harbourfront, then on to the Distillery District. There are plenty of interesting places to stop along the way: Ontario Place, several beaches and parks, and of course you can easily go to the CN Tower, Ripley's Aquarium of Canada, Saint Lawrence Market, take a ferry to the Toronto Islands, etc. We were lucky enough to enjoy some of the Redpath Waterfront Festival during our outing and got to see Thomas Too the Tugboat. If you like to bike, I can't imagine why you would not take the time to enjoy such a wonderful bike path. If I live in Toronto I would make ample use of it.

My friend and I were taking a leisurely stroll on The Boardwalk at The Beaches when the midday sun…read moremade it too hot for comfort. We walked over to the Martin Goodman trail, which parallels The Boardwalk, to avoid the heat. It's a lovely, winding trail shaded by trees. The bad thing is that the trail is also popular with many bikers, so you have to share the path. Beach on one side, parks and eateries on the other: what's not to love?

Secluded and remote from the rest of Humber Bay Park West (tip of peninsula). Limited parking…read more Fenced area on two sides and lake on the other (boulders, not beaches). Dogs are still able to jump on to the rocks by the entrance fence and out of the area. Water is available (lake). Wooded area for some shade in the summer. Picnic tables and benches present. Etobicoke Yacht Club has its own gate entrance from the club grounds. Area by entrance gate can be muddy after heavy rain as it is bare earth and not grassy. Frequented by many commercial dog walkers with five or more dogs with them of varying sizes and types.

Rennie Park is a deceptive little park. Approaching it from the north end off Morning and…read moreRunnymede, you're greeted by the usual family-friend park affair, a play ground, plenty of tables, and trees. But continuing further south, you reach the large soccer, and baseball field for the Swansea school; a favourite area for sports fans, and dog owners to share and enjoy. The hill near the school in the winter is one of the ultimate tobogganing hills in west end Toronto! Even further south from the soccer fields leads to a hidden little gem, Catfish pond which is surrounded by dense grass, trees and when it rains, mud! It's a wonderful little walk to take in the morning, and you can loop up and around the creek back to the school, or continue down Ellis. The only down side of this little gem is the mud near Catfish Pond, making the trek a bit messy for those ill prepared (although the brick path way in the mud on the east near the creeks helps). Dog owners should beware of By-Law Officers unaware that the park is actually off-leash according to the City of Toronto's website, and may have to inform the officers as such. All in all, I love this place, and it's much better than making the jog to High Park in the morning when I'm short on time.

I grew up across the road from Rennie Park at 12 Rennie Terrace. It was the park we played hide and…read moreseek in as kids, the park where we learned to ride our bikes, the park where went toboganning and the ice rink where we skated. I have very fond memories of Rennie Park and am so glad that it has remained intact for the last 50 years!!!!! If you get a chance to go there, please sit on the swings and go way up high for me!!!!! A dog named Stretch used to be there when I was a kid and I was deathly afraid of that dog!!! I guess he is long gone now....Our neighbors The Sendeckys used to live there as well, their son Mikey was a science teacher at Western tech but he too is gone now...Old Mrs Sendecky was from the Ukraine and used to invite us in for cold milk and cookies!!!!! Many fond memories!!! Take care and enjoy Rennie Park and make yourself some new memories there!!!!

This park is my favourite of several small parks that sit just behind Bloor in the village…read more Actually, the whole planning of these parks (I think there are four or five of them) are really cool, because they run parallel with Bloor so if you need a break from the hustle and bustle of the village, you can just pop into one of the parks but still walk in the direction you need to go. I like this park the best because it doesn't have a high nanny factor during the day, not that I don't like kids or nannies (I've been both) but it's just that when you want a moment of solitude, children are not always the best people to be around. In the summer people sprawl under the big oaks in this park like you wouldn't believe. Or maybe you would. Are you a sprawler?

The Humber River Recreational Trail goes through this park. It's a nice walk by the Humber River with lots of trees and various trails that stem from the main one. There are 2 paths; one for walking and the other for mixed use (walking, cycling, jogging). Dogs must be kept on a leash and there's plenty of signs posted advising of coyotes in the area.
