Waterfront Trail

Reviewed By MaraFromToronto - Toronto, Canada

We enjoyed a great walk along this trail today, right beside the lake. It was busy, so we kept the dog on his leash.

The Pickering Markets

Pickering Markets is not your average Marketplace, previously known as the Flea Market, we have expanded our vendors to reflect the core values of our business model. An inclusive environment created over 40 years ago that began by inviting small local business owners to a space at an affordable price, to sell their goods. The market grew to eventually hold over 500 vendors and now is the largest marketplace in the greater Toronto area. More importantly, it created a multicultural community within our four walls that buzz with energy every Saturday and Sunday. Hooray For The Weekend!

This is a great place to browse. It comes complete with a flea market that sells quality goods for low prices, an antique market, a food court, and a farmers market. It's similar in size and setup to the 400 flea market and antiques market. There are not many indoor markets as large and competitively priced as this place. Highly recommended.

Petticoat Creek Conservation Park

Enjoy the outdoors at Petticoat Creek Conservation Park, with inviting pools and a splash area to cool off, picnic sites to gather with friends and family, and the Waterfront Trail to experience Lake Ontario.

Reviewed By Verizon1111111 - Pickering, Canada

I have lived beside this park since its origin back in the 1970's. There was an old stone mansion close to the bridge over Petticoat Creek that the original homesteaders lived in; it had a fireplace upstairs in the bedroom( before central heating). There was an old wood bridge over the creek off of White's Road. The only access from the east side of the creek along the lake was from property owned by Fairport Beach Ratepayers Association. The property was sold to the Metropolitan Toronto Regional Conservation Authority in 1998. That allowed a bridge to be built across the gorge, joining the waterfront trail which extends across the Rouge River and into Toronto. The walk-in swimming pool was an amazing place to spend time with our children on a hot summer day, as we could walk there from home. It has awesome views from the cliffs overlooking Lake Ontario.
