Etienne Brule Park, Public park along Humber River in Toronto, Canada
Etienne Brule Park extends along the Humber River, featuring walking paths, forested areas, and multiple outdoor recreational spaces for visitors to enjoy throughout the year.
The park commemorates French explorer Etienne Brule, who first discovered Lake Ontario from this location in 1615 while exploring the territories beyond the St Lawrence River.
The Humber River and its shores served as a vital trade route for Aboriginal Peoples, with interpretive signs throughout the park detailing their historical connection to the area.
The park offers multiple entry points, including the main entrance at 13 Crosby Avenue, and maintains free parking areas for visitors arriving by car.
During autumn, visitors can observe Chinook salmon swimming upstream through the Humber River as they complete their natural spawning migration pattern.
