Our honest take
Mature trees and long calm routes create a quiet place in the centre of the city.
It is an active cemetery, not a park. Services, mourners and families always come first.
Plan the visit
Transit: Enter from Yonge Street or Mount Pleasant Road. Save the entrance because the grounds are large.
Access: Long paved roads and paths cross the grounds, but casual visitor washroom access is not clearly promised. Contact the office for a specific need.
Hours and timing: Gates are open 8 a.m. to 8 p.m. from April 1 through October 31 and 8 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. from November 1 through March 31.
