A great place for a hike since it features a lot of shade because it has many tall trees. The park connects with other ones in the area. Therefore, it's a great path to take to move between the different park of the region. It's a nice place to take pictures because it has nice bridges as well.

I visited on a rainy Saturday morning and it was peacefully quiet. Lovely little park with a handful of trails running through it. Be careful on some of the bike paths as several bikers tear down the steep hills and around blind corners.

Amazing trails, great sights, perfect trails to walk or hike. Even mountain bikes. Great for landscape photography and bird watching. Families and children will enjoy this park and sights. It's so quite it's like a world inside a park. Serena Gundy Park is located in the West Don River valley, north of Eglinton Avenue East. It was named after the first wife of the late James H. Gundy, owner of a 20-hectare private estate and president of the large securities dealer Wood Gundy Limited. The parkland was donated by the Gundy Estate in March 1960, on the understanding that $200,000 would be spent during a ten-year period on park improvements and that a suitable memorial, approved by the trustees of the estate, would be erected. A bronze plaque built into the stone gates at the Broadway Avenue entrance honours this generous gift.

I find this place so big. The nature is so awesome. There are trails passes by the beautiful creeks.. The trees are old tall and vast. So many people doing hiking, trailing and bike riding. Dogs can run freely in the picnic area. There are washroom by the group picnic sites. Parking is free. This is a great picnic area in the midtown Toronto. Would love to come back here.

Very nice, spacious grounds for picnic, leisure walks, running, playing and or just partying with friends and families. There’s place for barbecuing and restrooms are available almost on every site. Parking, no problem but might need to come in earlier or one would need to walk a distance. Reservation is needed for more than 15 people to secure picnic table (be kind and don’t hug all of them!” Come and enjoy before summer ends!!
