🏡🌿 THE BRIDLE PATH (DRAKE’S MANSION) & EDWARDS GARDENS WALK 🌿🏡
Ontario Association of the Deaf, 2395 Bayview Ave, North York, ON, CA🏡🌿 THE BRIDLE PATH (DRAKE’S MANSION) & EDWARDS GARDENS WALK 🌿🏡
Luxury Streets, Hidden Trails & A Garden Escape
Some parts of Toronto feel like a completely different world — and this walk takes you right through them.
Join us for a social walk through The Bridle Path, one of the most exclusive and wealthiest neighbourhoods in the city — known for its massive estates, gated homes, and quiet, tree-lined streets.This is where celebrities and icons have lived, including Drake and the late Gordon Lightfoot. It’s the kind of area where the houses don’t just impress — they shock.
From there, we’ll shift into nature and make our way toward Edwards Gardens, where things slow down with flowers, pathways, and a peaceful break in the middle of the walk.
This is not a formal tour.It’s a social walk — a mix of city curiosity, nature, and good conversation.

🚶♂️ What We’ll DoWe’ll begin in the Bridle Path area, walking through the neighbourhood to take in some of the largest and most impressive homes in Toronto.
From there, we’ll head toward Edwards Gardens, where we’ll take about a 30-minute break to relax, explore, and enjoy the flowers.
After the break, we’ll continue along parts of the Don River trail, finishing near Eglinton & Don Mills.
For those who want, we can grab something casual afterward at Tim Hortons or McDonald's. ☕🍔You’re welcome to join or head out whenever you like.
