David A. Balfour Park, Toronto

Sometimes it’s fun to just open up a map of Toronto, identify a green space on the map, and pop over for a mystery hike. That was how I ended up at David Balfour Park. The first thing I discovered was that part of the park was under construction, so it takes a bit to find your way in if you’re coming from the North side. The Rosehill Ave part is blocked off, but if you walk up Avoca Ave, you’ll notice a downwards slope with lots of giant construction vehicles on it. I would never have known if I hadn’t seen other people enter this way, but this is actually the current entrance.

So first impressions - the park is more a “path” or a trail then what you’d generally think of as a park. If you go North after entering from Avoca Ave, the trail features dirt steps. Due to the rain yesterday, it was pretty muddy and slippery (had a couple folks warn me) but there was a wooden handrail for most of this section of the park. It kind of gave me summer camp hiking feels because the wooden features (e.g., the railings and the steps) seemed old and not the sturdiest or most reliable.

I ended up under the Vale of Avoca, a beautiful large car bridge with a pretty intense sounding name, and explored the graffiti and street art for a bit.

You would need to hike a bit up behind the trail to the higher under-the-bridge area to see this quote.

(Rare selfie to give an idea of relative bridge size).

Afterwards, I walked back towards my original entrance and explored the South side of the park. The path here was paved which was nice. It led to another even more imposing bridge which, to my knowledge, doesn’t have a super dramatic LOTR-y name. This one was specifically for trains.

The trail from David Balfour Park left me at Mount Pleasant Rd & Roxborough - careful crossing here as there are no signals - and I was able to continue further down the trail which at this point would be called the “Park Drive Reservation Lands”.

A yes, a discovery walk. What am I supposed to be discovering, though?

So interesting thing, there are all these signs to keep out of the storm water area, but a few meters after this sign the fence just....ends.

The aforementioned storm water area.

Had I the time, I could have continued following trails in this area for an entire day as it would have eventually taken me near the Don River and related trails, which span out for kilometres across the city. My route is highlighted in pink (within the larger map) to give you an idea of the immense spread of trails.

Crothers Woods

Sure, it feels like -17° C (1° F) outside, but that’s no reason for me to end a weekend ritual that has brought me joy during the pandemic! I learned today that eyelashes aren’t the only thing that can ice up in freezing weather...apparently, eyelashes and head hair can too! And now, you know too. :)

Today I drove to Crothers Woods. If you drive by the Loblaws on Redway Road, there’s a little road at the back of it that leads down to a water treatment plant, and you can park there.

I didn’t realize it at the time, but I’d been at Crothers a couple weekends before - that time I’d followed the now defunct railroad line up from the east edge of Brickworks and wandered around, following the winding Lower Don River. This area is unique in that it has lots of smaller trails and paths where it’s easy to ask yourself “wait is that a trail?” especially in the snow. This also seems to be THE SPOT for mountain bikers.

This scene from that first hike in late January made me giggle. A family chilling on the sidelines while men on skates polish their own little ice rink to perfection.

This time, I was immediately greeted with this helpful map:

A few reactions to this map:

1) Was question mark really the ideal symbol marker for actual sites? Like, a star or an “i” for info booth wouldn’t have done it?

2) Police dog training facility?! Ok, remind me not to do any graffiti on that side of the tracks. (I’m remembering 1983′s Style Wars, where we see some of the drastically violent tactics the NYPD used to try and stop graffiti and street artists in the city. If you haven’t seen it, check it out - it’s a great look at 80s NYC and it’s free on YouTube.

3) For some reason I find it really funny that they include Loblaws in the map. Guess it’s not going anywhere anytime soon?

Safety:

Note that the trails here are narrow and uneven (in part, due to bike tire marks on particularly wet days). There were several times I slipped so this may be a good one for cramp-ons or hiking poles. I own neither of these devices, but I think that’s what they’re for, yeah?

Mountain bikers frequent the area, so I recommend being extra careful as you come around corners, especially on the more narrow and high up trails.

I appreciated the expanse of it. With few on-trail markings, you’ve never quite sure where you’re going to end up. I definitely plan on returning - especially when it’s warmer outside. Below are more pictures from my visit, including a sweet view of downtown Toronto (including the CN Tower).
