High Park

Neighbourhood: West Toronto

Why You Need To Go: I know, it's the obvious choice, but the reason High Park is perfect is that it's so full of different and interesting places, from secret statues to beautiful bridges and everything in between. 

Beltline Trail

Neighbourhood: Rosedale

Why You Need To Go: This trail has some of the nicest scenery in Toronto, whether you prefer snow-topped trees, funky old graffiti, or cool old bridges. Either way, it's sure to provide a memorable walk with your partner.

Humber Bay Arch Bridge

Neighbourhood: Etobicoke

Why You Need To Go: With one of the most gorgeous views of Toronto in the whole of the 6ix, this is a great place to grab a V-Day Insta pic. Wrap up warm, though, cause it gets cold on that bridge!

Distillery District

Neighbourhood: The Distillery District

Why You Need To Go: If your idea of Valentine's Day does not involve going out into nature, then the Distillery District is a great option. When the snow hits the lights in the middle of the night... that's amore.

Trillium Park

Neighbourhood: Waterfront

Why You Need To Go: Walking next to the lake might be chilly, but it can also be beautiful. Enjoy the close-up view of downtown Toronto for an extra bit of Valentine's Day eye candy.

Chester Hill Lookout

Address: East York

Why You Need To Go: Speaking of views, the lookout at Chester Hill offers a beautiful, sprawling look at the city lights. Enjoy a walk through the quiet, winding streets leading up the hill and reap the reward for your hard work at the top!

Campbell Avenue Park

Neighbourhood: Junction Triangle

Why You Need To Go: Nestled away in the heart of the Junction Triangle, Campbell Park is home to one of the cutest skating spots in the city. Enjoy a walk on the nearby and grab your skates for a wintry escapade!
