Experience the outdoors with family and friends at Boyd Conservation Park. Hike through the forest, play on green spaces along the Humber River, and enjoy picnics, BBQs and fun.
Located within the headwaters of the Don and Humber Rivers, Boyd Conservation Park offers a unique opportunity to enjoy nature in the city. The park is one of the GTA’s foremost summer picnic destinations for families and large groups. The steep-sided Humber River Valley and tall trees provide a quiet refuge where you can relax and enjoy the outdoors.
