Withrow Park

Family-friendly parks in Toronto

With about eight hectares of shady rolling hills, two baseball diamonds and tennis courts, Withrow Park is one of the largest parks in the central city. The original jungle gym hosts a sandbox floor, and you may prefer this spot if your kids are independent and want some distance from the younger children. The newer, larger jungle gym is decidedly safe for young kids. The space offers a few low-rise climbing structures, multiple plastic slides, a four-person teeter totter and a wading pool, all fenced in. Water fountains and three public washrooms are available on-site.
