Westview Park, Municipal park in North District, Winnipeg, Canada.

The recreational space extends across 28 acres of land, featuring a prominent hill that rises 60 feet above the surrounding prairie landscape.

The site began as Saskatchewan Avenue Dump in the 1880s, accepting municipal waste until 1948 when operations ceased and transformation into parkland commenced.

Local residents participate in winter activities such as tobogganing and skiing, while summer brings opportunities for hiking and off-leash dog walking.

The park entrance at 1 Midland Street provides access to walking trails, green spaces planted with native grasses, and elevated viewpoints of downtown Winnipeg.

The December 2018 installation of permanent block letters spelling Garbage Hill followed a citizen-initiated temporary sign that gained substantial public support.
