The park is home to a few historic buildings, tennis courts, trails, and in the winter there’s even a skating rink."

This is also where you’ll find Crothers Woods, known for picturesque winding trails and popular for mountain biking."

This narrow park located right on Toronto’s waterfront boasts six different biking trails, an open field for picnics and play, as well as its own off-leash area for your furry companions. Travel along its paved pathways during your morning run and watch the sunrise, embark on an afternoon hike while you watch Toronto’s wildlife cool off along the shore, or just simply unwind while you set sights on Toronto’s skyline from city’s west end."

"Another great photography spot just west of downtown Toronto is Humber Bay Park. It’s divided by Mimico Creek, creating an East and West Park and offers nature photography opportunities along with skyline views of Toronto. Both sections of the park jut out into Lake Ontario and features walking trails, rock beaches, waterways and a butterfly habitat."

"Humber Bay Park, created from two man-made peninsulas near Mimico Creek and Lake Ontario, is a popular recreation hub in Toronto.

"Located in the heart of Toronto’s Gay Village, T-Swirl Crepe specializes in Japanese-style sweet and savoury crepes.

The quick service restaurant on Yonge Street is one of our favourite spots downtown to grab a crepe cone to go."

"Funnel Cake Express is a popular dessert restaurant in Toronto that specializes in serving theme park and carnival favourite, finger-licking-good funnel cakes. The shareable dessert features a crunchy and chewy donut batter, deep fried into a circular disk. The sweet treat is then topped with soft serve ice cream and a variety of toppings such as strawberries or crushed Oreos."

"19 Don’t wait for the CNE for a funnel cake fix—just head to this dessert shop at Yonge and Wellesley. The Bullet is a tangle of deep-fried dough, dusted with cinnamon and icing sugar and topped with a beautiful blob of sweet strawberries, a swirl of soft-serve and a drizzle of chocolate sauce. And it’s a personal-size treat, so you know what that means: no sharesies."
