There is also street parking available by the old main road but will involve walking into the park.. Amenities: The cost per person is 7.00/adult. There are clean bathroom right at the entrance, the staff maintains the park very well even provide dog bags. There are easy to ready maps everywhere. Terrain: there are different trails that range in various levels of difficulty. The front entrance map provides a details overview of the trail. Some routes are accessible, since do have narrow paths and are more challenging. The park it self features trails, fountains, bridges overlooking falls, multiple look out points, streams & plenty of shade. It's beautiful in the spring, summer & fall. Highly recommend coming by early and enjoying a calming stroll.

Decided that thanks to COVID that I would explore more of the trails/parks that are close by…read more About 1.5 hrs from Toronto, this is a great hiking spot with good paths marked (although watch out for the horse poop!) and great views. There are multiple trails (named/colour coded), but the blue marked trail seems to be the "main" trail. I think the green trail takes you up to the viewing platform where you get some lovely views - I can only imagine when the leaves start changing colour - it must be epic! There is a map slightly into the entrance - i took a photo of it so I could see how all the different paths interconnected. Fairly large parking lot - you can only pay for either 4hrs or all day parking - there is no option to pay for anything less (but luckily it is not too expensive). I came on a random weekday so it was pretty dead - which was perfect! Lots of bugs so bug spray is a must. There really isn't any sitting areas - ie - no picnic areas/grass areas/benches to sit...it's definitely more of a walk walk hike hike area. Overall, it's a fairly easy and enjoyable hike. I'd love to come back in the fall and see the changing scenery!

There's a small water pump play area into sand which gets super muddy, great for sensory play and bad for parents when they get back to the car. There's a board walk that you can easily stroll a sleeping tot around into the forested area that has beautiful fairy lights changing colour. There's shade brings relief in the heated summer. Lots of fun for kids. The long board walk beside the waters edge is a nice way to enjoy the afternoon. It slopes towards an unpatrolled beach where the waves roll in. Small restaurant has fast food on one side and ice cream on the next. Decent prices still considering there's nothing around by foot. Washrooms are clean but need a facelift. The bad: PARKING! Locals have a parking pass to avoid stress and get better spots. The town seems to not encourage outsiders with their hefty downtown Toronto parking prices. There's no street parking now and signs everywhere, so you're forced to pay at the meter and scan your license plate and QR code or the meter maid will be looking for you.

There is a view of the mountains as well but not really that amazing. When we went, it was cloudy and windy as well. I guess due to no structures blocking it, generally, it may be very windy here which might need to be factored in before going there (clothing etc).

Instead there is a small slide for toddler use in the corner. For a large space, could feature a few more additions. A few swings and hammocks but has a really neat splash pad my kids enjoyed! Nice that they include an open air roof top (for parents I'm assuming to sit and watch the kids in the splashed as they could play there for hours). Basketball court and soccer field nearby. Parking was a breeze.

It seems to a pretty new park as many of the trees are still pretty young. Visually, I really appreciate the design, but on a practical level, the park is very exposed. It would be great if they added more shade elements and/or covered seating. I think as the park ages and the surrounding tree grow, this park will only get better.

I visited this park for the Polar Rush obstacle race back in February. I recommend proper snow…read moreboots or hiking boots for those coming during the snowy season. Otherwise, you'll lose traction down the paved path. I forgot my hiking boots at my parents and only had my Vessi's... It was fun either way. I sat on my snow pants and slid down the steeper paths. During the winter, it's also popular for cross-country skiing and in the warmer months for mountain biking. I recommend checking out Polar Rush next season for snow obstacle racing. We slid down a tube, crawled over a plank and tangled strings, climbed over obstacles etc. Sometimes they offer discount tickets too!

Entrance is off Hwy 50, other smaller entrance was closed during my visit…read more I got free passes, so I decided to use them sooner rather than later/never. It's about an hour's drive outside of S Mississauga. Site itself is MASSIVE and there's even camping, that's how big it is! Prior to my visit, I did take a look at what kinds of things can be done here in the Summer. There's also an outdoor pool with a splash pad, I believe that entry was under $5pp. There are tons of picnic areas, but the amenities weren't great aside from picnic tables and metal barrels to put your bbq ashes. Not all picnic areas had a lot attached to it. I went with the intention of hiking, but to be honest, be prepared to get lost! Maps provided/posted were quite poor. There would be a bunch of symbols, but no reference as to what they were. I just ended up using Google maps to make my way back to the car. As far as the hiking goes, it's not really meant for beginners - where the Red trail is concerned. There's narrow parts to the trail and lots ups/downs. To top that all off, the Park is very popular for Mountain Bikers, so you always hafta keep alert as to when they're coming. I'd say that it's better for MTBers, again this is only for the Red trail - the other ones may be better. So not super relaxing if you just want a leisurely hike!

First the good. Lots of parking, the beach is well kept. The swimming is nice and the quarry is…read morenice and cool. I wish the customer service were better because the location is stunning. Now the not so good. You have to purchase your tickets online ahead of time. We have an Ontario parks pass and you can not use this for tickets online as they ask you for a parks pass number (the Ontario parks passes do not have these) Because of this we were unaware there was time slots. We arrived at 1:30pm and were not told at the gate that we would have to leave at 2pm. We paid for parking ($16) and set up our site. We had about maybe 10-15 minutes before we were told we had to leave the beach. I asked one security person if we were able to hike the trail while we were waiting for the beach. She told us that we could and asked us to get our afternoon passes for 3pm. We cleared our site and were ready to hike the trail. When we did we were yelled at by another security guard that we had to leave the park and would not be allowed back in until 3pm. This person was very rude. We tried to explain our situation and were very rudely and abruptly brushed off. Staff do not communicate with each other or you. Security is very rude and do a poor job of explaining the situation. It's a shame, the quarry is very pretty but is not worth the hassle. I would have taken a photo to add to this review but I was rushed so quickly out of the area that I didn't have time to.

They'd give it 2.5 or 3 stars.
