Our honest take

One shelter, three washrooms, a playground, pool, wading pool, firepit and shops nearby make planning easy.

It is busy, noisy and public. The slopes can be awkward with a wagon or mobility device.

Plan the visit

Transit: Christie Station is across Bloor Street. This is the easiest TTC option in the guide.

Access: The park has steep slopes. Confirm the station exit and path that avoid unnecessary hills for the exact shelter.

Hours and timing: Pool, washroom, wading-pool and oven schedules are seasonal or program based. Confirm the facilities you need.
