Hidden Path to Toronto's Riverdale Park From Danforth Ave (Aug 2021)

[@viewfromthehighchair9391]

Enjoyed the walk and secret paths. I used to work at Riverdale Outdoor Pool back in the late 70's and 80's and used to love sitting in my guard chair or office looking at the skyline in the evening and after sunset. One of the most beautiful views there is in Toronto.

Having been born and raised in Toronto, I never knew this path existed nor the bridge lol ! The path looks a bit eerie, but walking into the park is gorgeous. Never been to Riverdale Park. Thanks for the tour around !

[@kohannaroach1985]

I love these Hidden Toronto videos, makes me think you're going to discover a pot of gold or something. Cheers!

[@FirstLast-nt5ui]

don trails are the pot of gold.. no other city has anything like this.. i can ride from sunnybrook to scarborough or to the lake without any roads, all path.. humber river too you can ride

[@adalaw8479]

Had no idea this path existed! Will have to check it out sometime.

[@missyogiebear]

Another lovely scenic Hidden Toronto video 😍

[@funnydog2448]

Great walk Johnny. Had no idea this hidden gem existed!

[@JohnnyStrides]

Thanks!

[@raymonddaviau4502]

I cycle by there a lot and I didn’t even know that path was there! Thanks for doing the real exploring for us!

[@AllanK1]

Love these hidden treasures and or little known places that you expose us to. Thanks Johnny...

[@sos1691]

You've again taken me down memory lane. Toronto appears quite civilized and full of nice places. Who would want to live any place else? Toronto has it all.

[@AnnaLVajda]

I lived in that neighborhood for about a year and a half 20 years ago it was fine took my Dog to that park regularly but since I heard about that Danforth shooting a couple years ago when the Second Cup I worked at was even hit now I am not sure what the neighborhood is like anymore.

[@good_to_be_gold8]

Hidden gem of a trail close to the city center. Beautiful nature. Thanks for sharing (:

[@jczirjak]

I used to live in that area about 30 years back and went to riverview park almost daily. Did not know about this hidden trail ! Love your videos Johnny !

[@whitefield4]

Thanks Johnny for another very interesting walk Toronto has some really nice walkways and Trails.

[@karlroth7082]

Missing the live videos these days, Welcome back !

[@nitabourne3042]

HI !! I ENJOYED YOUR WALK, A LITTLE INTIMIDATING WHEN YOU CAME TO A PATH WITH NO MARKERS AND THEN WHEN THERE WAS A CLEARING AND ON THE BRIDGES. I'M GLAD YOU KNEW WHERE TO GO CAUSE I'D BE UPSET AND OVERWHELMED THAT I DIDN'T KNOW WHERE I WAS GOING. LOL I HAVE AGORAPHOBIA AND THIS WAS THERAPY FOR ME. I ALWAYS WANTED TO SEE RIVERDALE ZOO BUT COULD NEVER FIND IT AGAIN. I THOUGHT YOU WOULD COME ACROSS IT ON THE WALK. NEVER KNEW THESE EXISTED UNTIL YOUR VIDEO, LOOKING FORWARD TO OTHER GEMS YOU FIND. THANK YOU AGAIN AND STAY SAFE AND HEALTHY. ❤🙏💙💕

[@pghrpg4065]

While we normally say bathroom or restroom here in the U.S., my grandmother (1919-2005) said washroom. Actually, being a Pittsburgher, she said worshroom. Anyway, nice to see something I'd never see if I'd visit Toronto.

[@hottubmobilenils2133]

Toronto where ya drive on the parkway and park on the driveway . Love you and your videos Johnny , thank you for your work and excellent contributions .

[@northcanuck7387]

If you get on your bike and ride it out there you will find interesting paths in Toronto, I found this one about 5 years ago, and there are many others. Every time I ride my bicycle in the city I explore and find new hidden paths everywhere.

[@kathleenwallace1165]

We always find these walks really interesting,!

[@Mark-pm9nh]

Hi Johnny . Great walking video . Love the quite hidden path through the trees . Cool south to north view of the T.O. skyline . Mark (Toronto) 💙👍

[@marsters9109]

This takes me back. We lived on Dearborn Ave. until I was 9. We'd walk to the Riverdale Zoo and get a 5-cent bag of popcorn from the gentleman selling from a cart. Life was good.

[@darlene5216]

Wow. You sure don't wanna go down that path at night.😮

[@spider7003]

Thank You Cheesey Rider for giving Johnny this suggestion for possibly filming and investigating. This was really interesting, walking this path with him for the first time ever. For Johnny, who is our Santa Clause, who keeps on giving and giving too all of us all year and who is our Christopher Columbus bringing us all too sight's that we ourselves would never have seen. T h a n k s

[@justbryannow4535]

Sites weve never seen? If your from here you know it. Just takes some exploring

[@michellebruce5092]

Nice walk today I enjoyed it can't wait to see more tomorrow ❤😃

[@FirstLast-nt5ui]

improvements are almost done, mostly past pottery road on trail.

[@cindybrown9898]

ROLLER SKATING EVERY SUNDAY NITE AT THE RINK!!

[@iancanuckistan2244]

I've been across the bridge countless times with a cycling group I belonged to. Nice capture, I just wish you would do a zoom into the old Don Jail rather than show Bridgepoint Hospital the a pan across the jail, it was a bit confusing.

[@chadhsiao7995]

cool video. i went to this trail in 2018 and it was relaxing but better leave after sun goes down it'd be creepy in the dark.

[@schnuurtchke]

I love Toronto and the gta

[@ЭйдерманСергей]

Solid. Thanks a lot

[@robertwalker6387]

Hi again, Johnny... only recently found out you were assaulted the other day while doing one of your walking tours... Yikes!! Hope you're OK & that the police find that disk-head & slap his sorry butt in jail... pls be careful out there & as always, keep up the great work... best regards... -Bob

[@glen6945]

damn---good----canadians live there

[@garyhubert5099]

St. Andrews Rd. in Scarborough. (off topic I know)

[@judithbutler4034]

What public transit can you use to get back to the subway? Is this route bikeable (looks to have some rough patches) with a hybrid bike?

[@JohnnyStrides]

I think a bike could handle it. I just walked back to Broadview, it wasn't even 10 minutes from where the video finished. Cheers

[@judithbutler4034]

@@JohnnyStrides actually I parked bike and walked it, then had coffee at Roosters and walked back up Broadview. Such a nice walk...thanks!

[@Burevestnik9M730]

looks like an ideal spot for jack the ripper

[@JohnnyStrides]

lol

[@sebastiancebey7665]

🙌👍

[@mollyliz.236]

Im a Riverdalian resident and have noticed the park (the one on the east side) has literally become like a graveyard! Everywhere you'll look you will find headstones on trees thats dedicated to the deceased. I know it's something probably they wanted but come on - I really don't wanna sit where someone's ashes are below and the other day I couldn't take a photo of the autumn leaves because there was a headstone right at the foot of the trunk. 😤Gahhhhh.... Haha sorry for this rant.

[@tomstur119]

everytime I walk the trail behind the school (Danforth/Broadview) there is always something scetchy going on. .. is that a drug dealer hub or a sex hookup spot?

[@Dynamics416]

It's a known, popular cruising/hookup spot. Happens day or night. Back in April was with a friend shooting photos along the Don Trail and we decided to walk through Riverdale Park on that exact main bushy trail in this video. Saw 2 people off the trail in the woods staring at us. It was clear they stopped what they were doing and waiting for us to leave....lol.
