Surrounding Park Area: green space and walking path (connects to other parks via sidewalk)

Seating: multiple poured concrete seating walls, rocks, and some park benches and picnic tables throughout the park

Shade: no shade over the playground itself, but shade provided from the surrounding trees throughout the green space of the park

Overall assessment: This was the perfect sized playground to let our 3.5 year old run wild! She loved the hill between the toddler slides and the larger play structure as it was the perfect slope to run down towards the trampoline. Yes! There was an in ground trampoline and it was amazing! The perfect size for one person at a time (it says ages 5-12 but toddlers loved it too). She needed a bit of help climbing up the rock wall to the larger slides as her legs weren't quite long enough to reach the next climbing rock, but the rope bridge was a great skill builder for her (she went VERY slowly across it). Luckily for us this park isn't too far away from family in Etobicoke and we most certainly will be going out of our way to visit it again whenever we are in the area! Did I mention it has a TRAMPOLINE?!?
This park was chosen as one of Canada's 150 coolest playgrounds
