Tommy Thompson Park (Distance from Convention Centre: 17-minute drive)
Trails
Tommy Thompson Park in the city’s east end encompasses a long narrow peninsula into Lake Ontario with the Toronto Harbour Lighthouse at its tip and beautiful views, end to end, from the multi-use, paved nature trail through protected wetlands. More than 300 bird species have been recorded at the park, as well as wildlife such as turtles, beavers, monarch butterflies, frogs and toads.
Toronto Islands (Distance from Convention Centre: 19-minute walk/8-minute drive to Jack Layton Ferry Terminal)
The ferry ride to the Toronto Islands is well worth the trip for prime lakefront hiking and unique perspective of the city skyline from Lake Ontario. If you’re feeling ambitious, a 14-kilometre hike leads from the Ward Island ferry terminal on the northern city side of the Islands all the way to the Hanlan Point Ferry Terminal on the opposite side. Martin Goodman Trail (Distance from Convention Centre: 17-minute walk/7-minute drive to nearest entry) Looking to get your steps in right downtown?

The trail has multiple access points from parks across the city.
