High Park

The park is wild, beautiful & spacious!! Just amazing to switch off from the hustle & bustle of the city. There's plenty of space to enjoy some peace & quiet. The zoo isn't much, but a nice addition.

High Park in Toronto is an absolute gem! This sprawling urban oasis offers a breathtaking escape from the bustling city. The park's lush greenery, picturesque gardens, and serene ponds create a tranquil atmosphere. The cherry blossoms in spring are a sight to behold, drawing crowds from far and wide.

Whether you're seeking solitude or a fun-filled day with family and friends, High Park is a must-visit destination in Toronto.

High Park is an idyllic oasis nestled in the heart of Toronto. I recently had the pleasure of visiting during the cherry blossom season, and it was a breathtaking experience. The park's lush greenery was punctuated with stunning bursts of pink and white as the cherry trees bloomed, creating a serene and beautiful atmosphere.But the cherry blossoms were not the only highlight of my visit. High Park is also home to a fantastic zoo, which features a variety of fascinating animals.The animals all seemed healthy and happy, and it was clear that they are well-cared for by the dedicated zoo staff.In addition to the cherry blossoms and the zoo, High Park also boasts numerous other attractions, including walking trails, gardens, and playgrounds. The park is the perfect place to escape the hustle and bustle of the city and connect with nature.Overall, my experience at High Park was wonderful. The combination of the beautiful cherry blossoms and the exciting zoo animals made for a truly memorable visit. Whether you're a nature lover or just looking for a fun day out with the family, I would highly recommend a trip to this lovely Toronto gem.

Went to see cherry blossom. Parking lot was closed as expected. Parked across the street. Very busy as expected. Trees weren't fully bloomed which was unexpected. Still had a good time. But a good portion of the park is under construction. Water overflowing on the pathway. Not maintained well at all. You have to walk a lot to see the trees as they are planted far apart from each other. Washrooms were decent but lacked sanitation. Water fountain was dirty. Definitely needs some maintenance so public can enjoy.

Very nice park and surrounding area. Quite surprised at how lush and diverse the forest is considering it's in downtown Toronto. The free zoo was entertaining and the gardens were beautiful.Be advised... it is quite hilly. Definitely worth it, just make sure you're ready for it.100% recommend it. It has a Stanley Park (Vancouver) vibe.

It spreads in a huge area and beautifully maintained. You can reach by street car 506 or by line 2 at high park station. There are various points to observe in park. There is toy train available in park which helps to roam in the park. Tickets can be purchased at the same time. You can visit for cherry blossom and family get together.

Absolutely must visit, so worth it! Doesn’t feel like you’re in Toronto. Beautifully well kept, there’s tons of trails for walking, biking and spots to enjoy nature. The restrooms were clean. There’s fishing, a zoo and tons of little animals like chipmunks, squirrels, ducks and Canadian geese.. perfect spot for a picnic, to walk your dog or just sit and read a book in the sun! Highly recommend!

This is surely one of the best public parks in the city of Toronto. Not only is it situated in a nice part of town, but you honestly can't even tell that you are in a large urban metropolis. There's so many different trees and wildlife in the park. There are also tennis courts and a swimming pool and kilometers of cycling trails. It's great for walking hiking picnics. It's also pet friendly, so it's a great place to walk your dog or bring your kids to play. The park offers so much to see and there are so many different areas within the park that you can easily spend the whole weekend at the park and not have covered it all. There is also the High Park zoo, which has a good variety of animals for kids and adults alike! For anyone who lives in the city as well as for visitors, this is a must-see free activity!

A beauty this place is. I'd suggest if you can, visit on weekdays. Now that half of the cherry blossoms have bloomed there'll be a huge crowd on weekends. For people with kids, visit the children's park as well. It has tiny forts build. Peak hours usually starts from 5pm on weekdays.

We went to High Park on Sunday, and I expected to see lots of people there. However, it was very quite (probably due to the rain). We loved the Zoo and the playground. Although the Zoo is not very big, it is maintained well. Restrooms are open for public, lots of picnic area. The only problem was finding the parking. We parked outside the High Park within 5 min walk.
