This is a wonderful place to sit and relax in or quietly walk through. All the plants, trees, water features, benches, etc. have been dedicated by families to people who have passed away over the years.

Easy trail to walk and nice and close to the Living Water Resort & Spa where we stayed. We started at the Heather Pathway and walked all the way through forested areas, then along Georgian Bay waterside into downtown Collingwood.

Since retiring to Collingwood in 2016, it has been one of my greatest pleasures to daily cycle the beautiful landscapes along the Georgian Trail and its many interesting side trails from mountain to shoreline. Nature 's welcome embraces you at every turn. Some days I peddle across town to Sunset Park via the shoreline trails, past the Inushtuk to stop a while and sit on one of the numerous benches with a delicious ice cream from the on site ice cream vendor. Other trips have included rides to Thornbury to the west with stops along the way such as taking g in the history of the area thanks to the Heritage Museum at Craigleith, to snap photos along the way and challenge these aging knees with a gradual grade incline and wind resistance past Georgian Peaks. There is always something interesting to explore and e experience along the trails but if I told you then that may rib you of some of your joy in the discovering. Welcome to Collingwood , Thornbury area along the wonderfull Georgian Trail it's yours to discover! Enjoy and please be respectful to leave nothing behind but your gratitude????

It's the beginning of winter in Collingwood and the kind of huge waves and strong winds have been wreaking havoc on the shoreline on southern Georgian Bay. Most recently, Sunset Point Park -- which was started thanks to the Rotary Club of Collingwood back in the 1960s -- has been taking a pounding from Mother Nature. The strong winds and relentless, pounding waves have caused some erosion along the Sunset Point Park area at Collingwood's waterfront. For your safety, it's smart to stay away from the damaged areas which are now under the scrutiny of the towns parks, recreation and culture department. The good news is that there is lots of park area there and much more in other waterfront areas of Collingwood. Check out Harbourview Park, behind McDonald's on First Street, and be sure to stroll through the Arboretum, even in winter.

So nice to be able to walk right out into the bay with water all around. Lots of benches to sit on. They were working on the trail when we were there, but we were able to walk along the road to access the point. There are two big plaques right near the front of the park by the water with some pretty interesting facts about the lighthouse keeper and other information worth the read.

Great views of the harbour, with it's many boats, paddleboards and kayaks on the water. There are lots of benches to sit on and enjoy the water birds, including swans swimming nearby. Lots of trails for walking.
