Petersfield Provincial Park

Reviewed By N4886EEtracym

My first visit to this place was just this summer and I'm sad that I didn't discover it sooner! It was an easy peaceful walk and I will definitely be back again.

Baille Ard Nature Trail

Reviewed By JonManley - Sydney, Canada

Beautiful, secluded and well groomed walking trails in the middle of the city. Best time to visit is early fall when then leaves are just starting to change. Very peaceful with the sound if running water throughout.

Coxheath Hills and Trails

Reviewed By 227alfred_ - Sydney, Canada

I had an opportunity to hike the Coxheath hills with my friends.We reach there by evening from sydney.Trail start by a steep climb up to the mountain.The whole path is covered by snow and water.There is a marvelous waterfall on the way and we can enjoy the peace in the bench there.When we reach the top we can watch the sky and the city.Keep going and you will find a pitman cabin.This is the most amazing thing about the trail.There are 3 trails to reach the cabin.If you pre book the cabin you can spent the night there and explore the peace and wilderness.Its takes 2.44 km to reach the top.The trail is suitable for all with crushed stone and wide path.This is an beautiful place to hiking.

Wentworth Park

Reviewed By ChitchatCanada

We visited this park as an extension of our stroll along the waterfront boardwalk and it was so enjoyable. It isn't big so you can walk the loop around the water pond in ~15mins. Check out the pictures that many others have submitted to see all that this little, understated park has to offer.

Mariner’s Park

Reviewed By parrottdize - Dyer, United States

This park.....boardwalk is just to the right from where the cruise ships dock and is a great place to take a stroll. Very well taken care of. There are several statues to look at, benches to sit on, a person playing the bagpipe (while we were there) and many flowers. It is a boardwalk, so it is easy to walk on and if you are using a wheelchair or pushing a stroller, you should have no problem.
