Glen Stewart Park

Nestled in the heart of nature’s embrace, Glen Stewart Park is a breathtaking escape from the bustling city life. My visits throughout the seasons have allowed me to capture its ever-changing yet always enchanting beauty.nnIn the warmth of summer, the lush canopy of leaves provides a verdant backdrop to the winding trails and the wooden bridge that serves as a charming gateway to tranquility. The sunlight filters through the branches, painting patterns of light and shadow that dance upon the path.nnAs autumn arrives, the park dons a golden cloak. The crisp air carries the rustle of fallen leaves, and the forest floor becomes a carpet of amber hues. The stark, bare branches of winter reveal the park's stoic grace under a blanket of snow, transforming the landscape into a monochrome masterpiece. The bridge, now dusted with snow, stands as a steadfast sentinel overseeing the quiet stillness.nnCome spring, a chorus of birdsong heralds the rebirth of the park. Buds peek through the branches, and the gentle flow of the stream sings a melody of renewal.nnFor those seeking a momentary retreat or a peaceful hike, Glen Stewart Park is not just a destination; it’s an experience that lingers in the heart long after one's footsteps have left its grounds.

Beautiful, well-maintained park. Different experiences depending on the season and I recommend both summer and winter. When it's icy, some of the stairs and trails are very slippery but you can sit and slide or use some of the fencing for support. One could hear the tallest trees swaying, and the stream of water flowing through the broken, icy surface. As the informative plaque explains, there are many types of trees in this area. So much to see and take in!

Beautiful spot for a short hike.nnLooking for somewhere to spend an hour or so, walking and hiking and birding? This is a great spot to visit. Just off Queen St in the Beaches, nestled between some picturesque homes, the paths here are beautiful and easy to walk. A little brook will follow you around, babbling along the way. A true gem.nn HIGHLY RECOMMENDED

This place absolutely makes me come back to the peace of nature. I recommend this place for walking, you should spend an hour to walk around this park to enjoy the view. I took these pictures in the autumn, you really can take a deep breath easily and find out the relaxation. Moreover, this place is the great view for those who want a autumn pictures.

I went here before fall and I loved the place. It was so relaxing walking down the stairs with green leaves all around you. I saw people walking here too. Gonna go back here again with friends.
