High Park, Toronto, ON

Gord and I took a walk through High Park this afternoon.

High Park is a municipal park in Toronto, Ontario. It spans 161 hectares (400 acres) and is a mixed recreational and natural park, with sporting facilities, cultural facilities, educational facilities, gardens, playgrounds and a zoo. One third of the park remains in a natural state, with a rare oak savannah ecology. 

High Park was opened to the public in 1876 and is based on a bequest of land from John George Howard to the City of Toronto. It is the largest park entirely within the city.

We took the Queen street and got off at the Queensway/Colborne Lodge Drive entrance. We headed north towards Grenadier Pond.

The fall colours were gorgeous!

Lots of ducks!
I was surprised the train was still running

We headed up the hill towards Bloor Street W.
