    Walk through the grounds on the west side of Bluffers Park and fund the viewpoint. In one direction we got a great view out to Lake Ontario. And towards land we saw the Scarborough Bluffs towering above. We kept moving closer and got the full panoramic view of the cliffs. With a zoom lens we looked at the cliff side closely. And understood why the cliffs are so unstable. Piles of rocks continue to grow below the sheer face. For a view of our great day at Bluffers Park and the Scarborough Bluffs, see the RetiredAndTravelling blog post.

    This is where you should go to see the classic view from the bluffs. To get there, head east on Kingston road and turn right at Brimley Rd S. After driving down for a minute or so, enter the first parking lot, at your right. There will be a trail (for pedestrians) on the northwest of the parking lot, it will be a 5 minute walk. This place is amazing and I was surprised how it was not as crowded as the sand beaches (which are amazing as well). IMO this place is a must go.

    2022 July 5β˜… Turquoise views of Lake Ontario with a backdrop of one of the bluffs. Waves crashing into the rocks while the cool wind hits your face along with the rays of the sun. Honestly an amazing view depending upon when you come. This is a good walk. A small beach is also nearby. However, wouldn't recommend as the sand isn't that great. If your looking for a beach, go to the east side of the bluffs. Paid Parking nearby but fills up by noon. Washrooms nearby. Definitely worth the visit.

    Bluffers park is a fantastic place to walk and explore! Lots of areas to sit and relax or areas to picnic. There are nature trails that you can access and many places to get some great photographs. This section the park allows great views of the cathedral bluffs and there is a beach area at the base to explore. There is a recently completed pathway to the far west which features a rock wall barrier and a gravel path beside it. Benches and picnic tables are everywhere. There is plenty of parking in the lot and public washrooms nearby the lot. A public boat launch is close by also. Be sure to check out the wetland area (known as Dunkers Flow) with walkways that can be accessed and give you a different view and feel of the area. Lots of birds, geese and other wildlife like raccoons can be seen in the park.

    Beautiful place, even in the winter time! You can see Toronto from the view point. Tons of parking. It can get a wee bit busy at bluffers point as it's not a huge area to walk around for privacy. I love it when there's a lot of people tho, gives that lively popping atmosphere.

    Nice turquoise waters for a perfect getaway within the city. Scarborough bluffs is a famous place near Toronto and this place does a lot of justice to the name it has. There is a lovely beach for you to enjoy. This Sandy beach is quite popular as well and there are lifeguards at the beach at all time. On the other side is the park with lovely views. You can easily spend the day outdoors here. People do BBQ and enjoy a day out. There are ample paid parking at this place. Beach and park have separate parking lots so it shouldn't be a problem to find parking. But keep in mind that entry to the park closes at 7 pm and the park itself closes at 11 pm. The hours might differ based on the season so please check before visiting.

    Free parking!! Much needed break for COVID time !! Just keep walking. Remove all your mental stress and feel free !! Loved this place can’t believe I have never been here before. Absolutely gorgeous all throughout the year. Trail has been closed but it’s easy to sneak in ;) Just be careful and go slow.

    Beautiful little park, great views of the lake and bluffs. This location also has a secluded crescent shaped beach which has a Carribean vibe to it - it feels like small lagoon beaches of Curacao. Note that the only washroom is alnear the maino parking lot so prepare before you head out to the park.

    Beautiful beach & park for a day out. Lots of picnic tables with BBQ pits. Nice long beach to walk along & grassy areas to have a picnic.

    Bluffer's Park, located in Toronto, Canada, is a picturesque area known for the iconic Scarborough Bluffs which rise up to 90 meters above the coastline. This park offers a unique mix of sandy beaches, scenic views, and recreational activities. Visitors can enjoy picnics, bird-watching, and taking leisurely walks along the trails with breathtaking views of Lake Ontario.

    All of the lookout points in this area are connected and don’t feel like going from place to place. You are able to get so many vantage points while walking through the area. Highly recommend no matter what time of the year you visit.

    It's astonishing. Definitely the best lakeside view in GTA. The walking trails are incredibly long. The view is next level & there's always an ice cream truck. The park has a huge variety of picnic benches & bonfire bbq's for cooking all alongside the lake. There's a few beach spots & the water has sand, not rocks; huge win.

    Really nice park with great views of Lake Ontario as well as the bluffs, once you get to the look out. The signage for the trails wasn’t very good and the pontoons were blocked off. We eventually found the correct trail was the one running alongside the water. There are washrooms and paid parking available.

    The scenery was beautiful. The weather was great. There were no screaming kids and people were very respectful.

    It's a beautiful place. Great place to walk around and picnic tables are available if you'd rather visit and sit down with friends.

    Amazing views, I'd say the lookout is the best part of Scarborough bluffs, amazing sunset and hills! IG: Moody.Clx for more!

    With all the CoVid restrictions in place, this was a great way to spend the day. Some trails were under construction, but there many other areas to just sit and admire the view.

    Had a beautiful experience! Will definitely go again.

    Very nice place to go for a walk. Busier than I expected. I assume the earlier you go the less crowded it will be.
