Leslie Street Spit

Nice circuit. Flat and peaceful.

you get the best of the city and the country - with great views of the skyline plus lots of birds and other wildlife. To avoid the crowds, try a winter walk.

it's a nice bike ride out there, then you turn around and look back at the islands and the skyline in the distance, and feel like you're a million miles from downtown in the middle of Lake Ontario.

It's like being someplace far away from the city, but with the entire city skyline in your view.

it's really scenic and beautiful. As a relatively new Torontonian, I didn't discover it til my last marathon course took me there. Really a hidden gem.
