    Very beautiful place! It's so soothing to take long walks here. Perfect to take the kids and the dog. Great for picnics too! Highly recommended it. Parking is $20, however.

    Nice lake shore walking tracks, during week days it's really calm, quiet and peaceful. Amazing place for evening stroll, picnic, dog walking, jogging and cycling. Numerous benches to sit. To top it all, the place gives you historical perspective about World War II veterans, with many commemorative text filled blocks. Further west you will see old Ajax water treatment plant being commemorated through a pergola canopy atop a high point. Nice lake views too for photography with a bit of flower beds to add to nature's beauty. Public toilet and parking available. Street lights also present though I always have come here in day time. All in all, nice place for an outing. Weekend parking not free.

  • 5/5 Master i. 5 years ago on Google
    A black granite obelisk creates a solemn and revered presence to these gardens honouring those who served and continue to serve in the Forces. The layout is well thought through. It can hold a gathering of folks but also allows people to walk and ponder each little niche in the garden adorned with interesting tidbits of Ajax history. For example, I'm a graduate of UofT but had no idea that there was a UofT annex in Ajax right after WW2 to accommodate and give veterans post secondary education after returning from the service. Pretty neat.

    I love walking here. Lake Ontario is beautiful and in the summer the gardens are breath taking.

    It's very well maintained, the flowers are beautiful and the rest of the stuff like the monuments to the war veterans are neat to look at.

    Beautiful place but at the Remembrance Day there wasn't no one flower. Nobody cares about veterans in Ajax administration.

    Actually get the feeling you are or could be on the deck of the HMS Ajax looking out at the water cuz it is on high ground, almost a cliff. Used to live near there and love the lake

    Great historical place at the middle front of Ajax! You can learn about the HMS Ajax and its travels. Although it's situated on a hill, there is a great view of the lake and it's surrondings.
