Looking for a magical place to see some cherry blossoms? You'll want to hop in your car and head to this enchanting trail near Toronto.

Cherry blossoms are finally opening in and around Toronto and it's a magical sight to see. According to the High Park Nature Centre, the cherry blossoms are in peak bloom and are expected to last for four to ten days.

While High Park is a popular spot to see these spring flowers, this gorgeous cherry blossom trail just outside of Toronto is worth a road trip.

Featuring a tunnel of pink blooms, you'll feel like you've stepped into a floral dreamland at this spot.

Spencer Smith Park in Burlington, Ontario is home to a dreamy trail lined with about 40 cherry blossom trees.

You can wander beneath a canopy of pink petals and take in the stunning lake views. It's a gorgeous spot to snap some dreamy photos.

On May 11, 2024, the Burlington Performing Arts Centre is hosting a Sakura Festival in celebration of these springtime blooms.

You can enjoy activities like face painting, a karate demonstration, artwork, dance performances and more.

A Burlington representative told Narcity that the trees at Spencer Smith Park have started to bloom so you'll want to plan a trip asap!
