Ravine Path
Toronto is criss-crossed by an extensive network of deep ravines that have been carved out over the centuries by the 3 rivers and the numerous creeks & streams that run through the city. They have almost all been left in a natural state as a protection against flooding and so you are never very far from a path such as this one leading down from a busy downtown street into wilderness. They are well used by walkers, runners, and especially people walking their dogs!

How wonderful Pat. Much more in a modern city like yours.
Makes one want to pop out for a stroll right now!
A little escape from the big city while you are still there.
pretty and lush!
Nice they have those. I would never have guessed that was taken in a busy downtown area.
Very green and lush Pat. Toronto is a fascinating city have you seen the 'Strip the City' series.. so good!

The best thing is that people actually clean up after their dogs in Toronto. :)

A lovely oasis amidst the big city!
A very inviting trail.
Another world inside the city! ;-)
Now that is exactly what is so lacking in Paris...
You are so fortunate to have such paths/trails as part of the Metro complex! I would spend a lot of time on these paths. And I'd guess there are a lot of great photo ops along the way, too.
Nice, I associate ravine paths with seaside towns like Scarborough where they are equally popular with joggers and dog walkers.
This picture is making me want to go for a walk!
Beautiful. I haven't been down in too many of those ravines.
What a beautiful looking trail.
Nice looking trail!
The lush shades of green along this path are beautiful... a very inviting place to walk in quiet contemplation.

We walked many ravine trails when we lived in TO many years ago. Loved exploring them!

Looks like an ideal walk for a walk!
Lovely path!
This is an informative post. I didn't know about Toronto's ravines.
I think it's great that Toronto still has some natural beauty within its borders.
