Fort York: Garrison Common

It was my first time in the same neighborhood. Surrounded by housing communities on all sides, the Garrison Common do provide a serene environment for the public to unwind & take their pets out for a walk as well. Many events take up this place as their venue due to its strategic & historical significance. Once you get down from the street car, you can walk towards the bridge & take the stairs underneath the bridge to get to this open space. A great place for a picnic or an evening walk.

Wonderful park especially to watch stars in the evening. The nights are absolutely amazing here. It's situated adjacent to the famous Bentway. Great park to walk dogs and usually houses several art exhibitions

Beautiful park located along The Bentway with nice views of the City skyline. Large enough to host events with thousands of people. Vegandale fest is probably one of the biggest summer events hosted here every year.

Great open space next to the Fort for events, people to relax and hang out, and dog lovers. A lot of dog socialization and play here, and it's very welcome for those wanting to give their pets a bit of a run and more social interaction than just walking down the street. Easy connection across to Liberty Village as well.

Love the space. Its perfect for the outdoor events. But it would be nice to see the grass better maintained.

I saw more than 10 dogs off-leash and some of them were not recall-trained and reactive to other dogs.

What a great hidden gem of the city. The park is huge and gives you an unbeatable view of the city. The bridge crossing makes it convinient to go to King Street with tons of restaurants and cafes. Very pet friendly park and the doggos seem to love it.

Love the park. Plus a historic site with war bunkers and cannons.

Pleasant surroundings. Quite Informative with one of the scheduled free guided tours. Walking required. Very suitable for Individuals and families alike.

a little gem in Toronto to skate for free if you have your own or rent if need be
