Canada Ontario Toronto High Park
Toronto's largest public park featuring lush greenery, trails, sports facilities, a zoo, children's playground, and diverse recreational activities.
Tips from the community
High Park is Toronto’s Central Park—just a bit less central. The massive patch of green space runs from the edge of downtown right to the lake itself, and is packed with families wanting to see the
High Park petting zoo (home of the infamous capybaras that once escaped in 2016,
mesmerizing the city) and cherry blossoms in the spring. But if you’re visiting in the summer, consider checking out the high-quality productions of
Shakespeare in the Park, which always match the Bard’s poetic verse nicely with the wondrous nature that surrounds audiences. Tickets aren’t terribly expensive, and the actors often include some of the finest in Canada.
