Cyclist riding through a lush tree-lined trail

Toronto's Independent Trail Guide

Toronto is wilder
than it looks.

Ravines, river valleys, hidden bluffs, and urban wilderness – all reachable on two wheels.
Your guide to the trails hiding in the city.

Start somewhere real.

Three rides that show you what Toronto cycling actually looks like.

Train tracks with amber trees overhead Easy
8 km · Paved · Year-round

Lower Don Trail

The gateway ride. Flat, paved, and tucked into a ravine so deep you'd swear you left the city. Start here.

Dramatic Toronto skyline view over open water Easy
12 km · Mixed · Year-round

Tommy Thompson Park

Five kilometres into the lake. The Accidental Wilderness. My favourite trail in the city.

Every trail, mapped.

Each marker links to a full trail guide, or you can check out the full interactive map to see everything at once.

Stories from the saddle.

Ride reports, tips for getting started, and the occasional adventure that didn't go as planned.
