Easy 20-30 minute trail with an entrance that could be easily missed when driving. There's a small parking lot with a porta-potty for washroom needs. Great signage on each fork that shows where you are currently so it's hard to get lost. We saw a small pond and someone built a te...

A little muddy at times but a nice walk where you can even take the baby stroller. Only reason for 4 stars is that it goes out into a residential area at one point.

The most beautiful pond ever. Not really, but it's nice to have something like this just north of the city.

The trail in Boyd North leads from South to North. It's not a circular trail, so you'll have to walk back. One way from Rutherford to Major Mackenzie is about 2.5 km climbing and descending the hills. Has an average difficulty and definitely not suitable for people in wheelchairs...

Great scenery during a clear skies sunset but the ground looks like a dump site. Almost thinking about heading out there one day with a bunch of garbage bags do some cleaning. Really nice spot though, relaxing... peaceful and very neglected by the city.

Lots of different parking options that allow you into the park. Main loop was under construction last time I was there. It’s a nice enough walk but the park doesn’t have any especially distinguishing features. Good walk that will make you feel like you were active.

Great spot for a hike and a great place to go exploring. There are multiple little trails to discover. The water streams are crystal clear and very relaxing to sit beside. The trail itself is closed off after a little bit for future expansion which means you can veer off into th...

Quiet and simple to walk through, this trail is a nice little place to get away. Easily accessible, however there is no parking lot. Good nature views.

Especially beautiful when the leaves start to change color in the fall. Located near a public golf course, the area is great for walking and admiring the beauty of nature.
