Finding your self in a land of green and flowers. With trees ponds and dogs area. It makes you wonder if you still in the city or has find yourself in the country site. Perfect for family picnic, running, walking or just bring a blanket and seat in the grass to the sound of nature.

easy to get to - walkable from Keele or High Park subway station. Limited parking in the park and on neighbouring streets - be prepared to walk. Cherry blossoms in spring, High Park Zoo, hiking, boating, and more all year round!! It's a lively, happy place!!

Cuteish, but I believe less cute that the one before it. I'd say nineteen out of twenty one. I'd visit me instead, but very very oblique.

We were not able to go in because of traffic, not enough parking space during special events/season.

Good for spending 2-3 hour on walking, photographing, picnicking etc. The best way to get there is taking subway to High Park station. On the cherry blossom blooming period is very crowded, so, a consequence is the traffic jam. better bring your own food and drink, otherwise you gonna waste time on the long line.

Went to see the Sakura yesterday - lovely. However the "event" has gotten out of hand because of the numbers of people - and the fact that this is not a scheduled city "event". It just happens when they Cherry blossoms open - which is part of the excitement. As a result there is no crowd control, minimal washroom services,... More

As the author of the guide for local parents Toronto Fun Places, 5th ed., I've seen most of the good playgrounds in and around Toronto and can assure you High Park's playground with a superb wooden castle (build with the help of 3000 thousand local volunteers) is the best of its kind. So whimsical. It is sure to fire up... More

It was nice to walk through the zoo and take some pictures. Loved seeing the Joey's in their mama's pouches.
