Wetlands & Water Testing in High Park Details
Explore the wetlands of High Park on a guided walk while learning about the animals that rely on these important habitats. Along the way, we’ll test the water using Water Rangers freshwater test kits to check key indicators like oxygen levels and salinity. Discover how changes in water quality can impact wetlands and the wildlife that depend on them.

This event will begin at the High Park Nature Centre’s Forest School building located at 375 Colborne Lodge Drive.
A number of changes were made to the travel network within High Park as part of the High Park Movement Strategy that might influence your decision to drive to High Park. In case you’re driving we strongly recommend you to park your car at the public parking lot near Grenadier Cafe.
We continue to recommend using the TTC or biking as the best way to get to High Park and the Nature Centre. The Nature Centre is situated just a 5-minute walk from the High Park Subway Station. In case you were biking, there are bike racks available in front of the Nature Centre.
Please note, High Park is closed to cars on the weekends. If your event is on a weekend, you will need to park outside the park and walk in, or take transit.
