Amazing gem in downtown Toronto. Get here by any personal watercraft and you'll love this place. We slept on our SUP for half hour here. Also amazed to see the birds and geese around. Just watch out when the water level is low, you may be not be able to come in or your boat may hit the bottom.

Great walking spot.and if you really want a nice ending after the walk you should stop by the old mill restaurant on their patio.

Odd dog park. Nothing is marked and I did not see any other dogs there. But still a big green space for doggos so 5 stars

The best time to walk the Humber Marches is during the winter when the river and marsh freeze over.

Great place to enjoy nature, just steps from the TTC. Walk, cycle, or paddle your way around. Yesterday we saw electric blue dragonflies, painted turtles, ducks, geese, swans, cormorants, grey, blue, and white herons. A friendly man in another boat even pointed out two beautiful Black Crowned Night Herons. This stretch of the river is easily accessible by car (free parking!), and is just minutes from Old Mill Station. I highly recommend it!

Love canoeing down Humber river and to peek into the marshes with its rich flora and fauna: as if one is in some remote wildlife sanctuary and not in the middle of the largest city in the country!

I had such a peaceful time kayaking on Humber river. Ill come back next time for Stand peddle experience in this same Humber marshy river. A must visit to enjoy the summer in Ontario

Very much enjoyed the canoeing experience at the Humber River. We were early (before 10) so parking wasn't an issue but it does fill up fast. It was pretty crowded but there weren't any issues with keeping a good distance away from others. Be careful if it's too windy coz it was a bit tough maneuvering the canoe but all in all it was pretty awesome experience.

Out of sight and path entrances hidden away make for an exciting find for these hidden bodies of water. Probably best visited in late spring as the tree buds begin to sprout.

Would be nice if there was a bridge from West side trail to the marshes on the east side of the river. Outdoor trails appear to be more of a connection trail for people traveling the Humber river trail than a park of its own.

Would need to explore more to better understand what this park has to offer.

There is a boat launch located towards the South.

Nice place to go with the family or a pet. As long as there aren't too many people there. They have a boat launch and a place to have a picnic. I used to go there as a kid to watch the geese.

In general very beautiful. In compare to other parts of Humber river parks and trails I give it 4stars

Nice beginners fishing spot. On a lucky day, plenty of cat fish. Please catch and release so others can enjoy it too!

Nice place. Good for a walk, bike ride, or any other activity you want to do. Except paddling in the fall, when there is leaves everywhere and you can't go 20 minutes without your body going numb. But for the average joe just trying to go outside for some fresh air, this is a great option.

Beautiful place to explore with a canoe, outrigger, sup or dragon boat. Beware of the people who live along the bank, they tend to have a NIMBY attitude to non home owners

I’ve been paddling the Humber 12 years. The marshes are great to explore. There is plenty of wildlife to look at and great views.

I love Old Mill and Bloor West Village area. That area, is very special part of Toronto for me.

So beautiful. Feels like you are outside of city. Water is a great temp too it you hit a clear area to swim. Lots of wildlife. Geese, turtles, muskrats, ducks, etc. Lots of friendly people on water. I access with a $54 Canadian tire boat right under old mill station

Love this place! Such a wonderful day with sooo much wildlife that I had no clue would live there. Must do if you get the chance:)

Beautifully serene place to connect with nature. Perfect to ground yourself with its energy. To go canoeing, boating, fishing, bird viewing. The sunsets and sunrise are stunningly spectacular! Bring a blanket, have a picnic, relax and enjoy the bird watching. Reminder that you do require a fishing license. Also bring water bottles to quench your thirst on humid and hot days. Enjoy it's beauty!

Nice place to see lots of birds. Humber river mouth is pretty flooded at the moment with some overflow occurring on the footpaths.

Beautiful park away from the madness of High Park and the waterfront. Little fire pits (unofficial) for roasting marshmallows.

I feel sooo peaceful an blessed when in this space! Every feeling down take a walk around this place an feel what God has given us!

My kids and I had an opportunity to try canoeing there. It was a great family experience. It would be better if the quality of the water could be improved

Rode down for a break. The path is nice from old mill.all the way to the lakefront. Pretty relaxing and beautiful view of the CN Tower.

Very beautiful place with great scenery and wildlife, the perfect place to bring family and friends for a little outting

This is an awesome place to go for a paddle right in the middle of Toronto. There's a large parking lot and a convenient boat launch area. The Humber River here is well preserved and you can see all types of wildlife, including a number of waterfowl. It takes about an hour to paddle down to lake Ontario and back, and the current isn't strong so paddling is a breeze. You can also paddle north a short distance to Bloor Street but after that it gets too shallow to continue. It's one of the few good places to canoe within the city of Toronto - check it out!
