High Park Toronto Reviews

Rated 4.7 out of 5 Star Rating

4 Star Rating High Park is a stunning destination that truly captures the essence of natural beauty, especially during cherry blossom season. The beautiful cherry blossoms draw flower lovers, while the open spaces and benches provide ideal picnic spots. My family and I had an enchanting experience at the Cherry Blossom Festival, with evening visits feeling like stepping into another world. The vibrant colors and delicate petals created an atmosphere of pure magic. This picturesque setting is perfect for romantic strolls or family outings. Besides its floral charm, High Park offers a range of activities such as dog walking, making it a favorite among pet owners. The zoo within the park features a variety of animals, adding an extra layer of excitement to your visit. With a dog off-leash area, wonderful playgrounds, and a trackless train for kids, High Park caters to everyone. The park is easily accessible via the subway, ensuring convenience for all visitors. Parking near the Garden Cafe is limited, so I recommend parking on the main street and enjoying a leisurely stroll to the cherry blossom area. Overall, High Park is a true urban oasis in Toronto, offering a rejuvenating escape with its vast green spaces, serene ponds, and lush gardens. It's a must-visit for anyone looking to immerse themselves in nature and create unforgettable memories with their loved ones.

5 Star Rating What a wonderful park that has something to offer for everyone. There’s dog off leash area for the furry lovers. There’s very nice playgrounds, little zoo, and trackless train for the kids. There’s beautiful cherry blossoms in the spring for the flower lovers. There’s of course lots of open space and benches for picnics.

5 Star Rating My family and I had the most enchanting experience at the Cherry Blossom festival in High Park this spring. Visiting the blooms in the evening truly felt like stepping into another world. The vibrant colors and delicate petals created an atmosphere of pure magic. One thing to note is the limited parking near the Garden Cafe, so I recommend parking on the main street near High Park and enjoying a leisurely stroll to the cherry blossom area. Trust me, the walk amidst nature only adds to the charm of the experience. Overall, I can’t recommend the Cherry Blossom festival at High Park highly enough. It’s a must-visit for anyone looking to immerse themselves in the beauty of nature and create unforgettable memories with their loved ones.

5 Star Rating First ever cherry blossom 🌸 experience.. so amazing and beautiful.. we enjoyed each and every moment there. It's maintained very well and all basic facilities are well planned here. Better we should also follow necessary guidelines to protect greenery and flowers, make sure we maintain garbage policy and maintain cleanliness of nature. Some important points for visitors 1. During cherry blossoms, vehicles are not allowed.. better you plan vehicle parking at nearby streets 2. Sometimes due to rain.. a little muddy slippery area.. better go with good gripped sports shoes. 3. Make sure you carry a selfie stick or tripod for better photography experience 4. If you are in nearby areas.. better plan for 2-3 visits between the end of April to the beginning of October 5. Better get some ready to eat items if you have kids along with you, as food courts are very crowded and not economical also.
