Trinity Bellwoods Park, Urban park in Toronto, Canada
Trinity Bellwoods Park is a spacious green area with mature trees, sports fields, and walking paths in downtown Toronto's west end. A recreation center with indoor pools, a gymnasium, and fitness facilities sits on the park grounds.
The land originated as a property grant to Samuel Smith in 1806 and later became home to a private college led by Bishop John Strachan. These early uses shaped the area before it transformed into the public park of today.
The park hosts regular farmers' markets and outdoor movie nights that draw the neighborhood together. A bronze bust of Simón Bolívar stands among its monuments and reflects the city's international connections.
The park is easy to walk through and has plenty of seating areas for visitors to rest and relax. Pathways are well-maintained and restroom facilities are available throughout the grounds.
A buried creek called Garrison Creek still flows beneath the park through an underground storm drain system. This hidden waterway invisibly connects the park's northwest and southeast corners.
