High Park is one of the last huge, green spaces left in the middle of Toronto. The park provides rejuvenation to both the air and to the spirit of those who breathe it. This is one of the most sought after areas in Toronto both for buyers and renters. With playgrounds, plenty of off-leash space, tennis courts/ baseball diamonds, the zoo and nature walks, High Park is both child and pet friendly and a wonderful place to exercise or spend a Sunday afternoon. And you won't have to find parking during the famed Cherry Blossom festival :).
