Visit a Garden/Sculpture Garden
Gorgeous gardens span across the Greater Toronto Area, and range from flowers that come in all colours of the spectrum to shrubs and bushes that make up a visually beautiful green backdrop for a stroll. Some are accessible, some are kid-friendly, and some have sweeping views of Lake Ontario, but all of them showcase the beauty of nature.
Sculpture gardens are the perfect blend between nature and art, featuring art installations from local and international artists and concerning multiple different themes. Visit Sculpture gardens in Toronto and GTA.
Go on a Bike Ride
There are many places to enjoy a bike ride with one of the best place being the waterfront trail that traverses the Great Lake Shores. Choose a section of the trail that travels along GTA cities that border Lake Ontario and get that muscles pumping.
Alternately, go to your city website for bike trail guides and check out the bike trails near you.
Visit a Nearby Beach
If the weather is nice, take a walk along on the beach.
