Leaside Park

Great park between Leaside and East York. It has a baseball diamond, soccer pitch, tennis courts, swimming pool, playground, community garden, and nature trails. The highlight has to be the view of downtown Toronto from the southwest corner. There are four Muskoka chairs to sit in and stare at the city, they also make an awesome pic opportunity. The nature trails exit the south end of the park into Taylor creek. The baseball diamond is large but there are no grandstands. There is some parking but not a lot. Public washrooms are available May through October.

Love this park. I love how it's is maintained by conservationists. Great family park.

Nice park with a med-size playground with sand underneath. Good for 2-12 year olds. However, a strangely behaving man made us uncomfortable. There was one person in the distance, so we weren’t alone. But he kept walking around and looking towards us. We then left after 5 min.

Mornings are great during all season specially in no winter,
decent waking tracks around a very green area. It also joins with Don Valley trail.
Lost of trees, a communal garden, playground, swimming pool open on summer and washrooms.
Nites are ok, use caution, there's been history of vandalism.

The pool is very big and nice and cold. It's really relaxing to cool off during these massive heat waves and to have a little fun when your own condo pool is closed.

I love to go here and see people from my homeland walking on fields of green grass.

It reminds me that I may be able to go home someday. I miss it so much and pray we'll all be together again, on the same green grass.

Though, I am careful to approach anyone. We all need our space, and at times, I question where I belong.

Took the My 3 kids here and I have to say it’s the best park I’ve been to in Toronto. The thought that went into this! Wow. So many awesome activities for the kids. We will be going back. I hope the city turns more outdated parks into one like this.

It is in fact a good park to visit. It has jogging tracks, tennis court, a swimming pool and different types of swings for kids. Usually not too busy.

It has outdoor pool, football ground, walking trail, kids' sandy play area, tennis court and base ball area.

Clean and quiet park. Good to be around while waiting for the pool reopen for the next round. Well organized and trimmed with facilities for kids

Such a beautiful hidden gem. Playground for the kids. Soccer field, baseball diamond. Walking trail. Swimming pool, tennis courts and washrooms! Such a nice little place. Another great Toronto Park! (Parking is very limited.)

This is another reason to like Toronto.the biggest, most interconnected park system in the world

I think its one of the best places to go if you live near by to enjoy some time with friends or alone:)

There is a lack of things to do besides the little climbers and swings for the kids. The terrain is not taken care of as the grass is always long. Unless you are registered with a program that organizes activities here, this is nothing but a big patch of grass.

Very beautiful park, if possible they should add a basketball court and try to provide outdoor ice skating facilities during winter.

This park can be better and better. The funding should not goto city, should come to those whom make this park as a park.
I feel sorry for people living here in thorncliffe,
they dont know the taste of LIVING.living here and back home is the SAME.
HEY CITI WE WANT TO LEARN HOW TO LIVE A LIFE LIKE A HUMAN BEAN.

Nothing, its a small park but ok. There's a pool, a baseball diamond, kiddie play area & tennis courts there.

This 3.4 hectare park near Millwood Road and Overlea Boulevard features a lit ball diamond, six lit tennis courts, a multipurpose sports field and a children's playground. The park is also home to the Leaside Outdoor Pool.

Beautiful park, great playground, huge field! Bordering the forest of the don valley, absolutely beautiful. There are little outcroppings just off the main park path into the woods that are great quite little place to hang out and enjoy nature.

Almost everyday we come here with this kids. Just a lot of open space with a forest in the back to explore

I won't say this is a great park. A big portion of the park is reserved for baseball. The play area is small and cozy suitable for all ages upto 12. There is a path running through the park so that kids can cycle and others can walk. The seating spots are unshaded. There is no water fountain and no washroom facility. It does have an outdoor pool to be reoorned in summer. A good one for short visits. Connected by 88 West, 25A and 100 to St. Clair and other subway stations. If you visit Iqbal Foods this park is a good stopover.
