Our honest take
One shelter, four picnic sites, a washroom, firepit, trails and many parking lots suit an adult or older-child group.
Only one shelter and washroom serve a large park. No playground appears in the current facility record.
Plan the visit
Transit: Surface buses serve Dufferin Street and nearby roads. The park is large, so use the exact entrance and picnic pin.
Access: The City describes the trails as fully accessible, but the route to the exact shelter and washroom still needs confirmation.
Hours and timing: Confirm which picnic site is covered and whether the firepit is a separate booking for the same date.
