First of all, the 4 hours limit is ridiculous, I thought we paid the day use per person and parking in full. The views were so breathtaking that you do not want to leave. you would envy your south boarder neighbors whose entrance passes per vehicle are valid for 5 days in their national parks. The trail was pretty easy until getting to the Grotto.

Very large a park, a lot of trails. To be exact 116 trails, according to Alltrails. We just did a detour on our way from Moncton to Saint John, added about 100km to our original trip. Spent a couple of hours there, just picked up a few spots from the park map to visit. A beautiful park.

The city view was breathtaking, the Chalet was magnificent. All side trails were closed. The main trail did not have any shade, it was a hot day at the end of May, felt like over 30 °c. The scenery around the pond was beautiful.

Stopped here from Awenda to Midland for a quick walk. The park, the sculptures, the flowers, the scenery were beautiful.

The air, after a rain, was fresh. The clouds were light in the east and dark in the west. Planed to go west from the Port Union waterfront Park to the Great Lakes Waterfront Trail/East Point Park Bird Sanctuary, but the trail was closed from the halfway point to the bridge. Went from the East Point Park Bird Sanctuary parking lot to Lawrence through the Lower Highland Creek Park and back. The walk was delightful.
