With so much to do within the walls of Toronto, you’re likely to never get bored. The city’s constantly got things to do, from festivals to new coffee shops every day. When planning your next date with a significant other or even a best friend, think outside the box that is Toronto and get connected with nature with these unique activities, all located within an hour of Toronto. The best part is the amazing views that come with them, providing awesome photo opportunities.
Located right in the beautiful Heart Lake Conservation Area in Brampton, Treetop Trekking is a great escape from the city. Zip lining across the lake is both exhilarating and breathtaking.
A touch of the West right near Toronto. It’s on the cusp at an hour drive out but is well worth it. Ride on horseback with your loved one through tree-laden trails. How romantic, right?
Did you know Hamilton, Ontario is the waterfall capital of the world? It boasts over 100 waterfalls, the most popular being Tew’s Falls, Albion Falls, and Devil’s Punch Bowl. Seeing each of the falls involves separate hike trails, so pack some water, snacks and obviously a camera.
For the city slickers who refuse to leave, this is a good way to substitute all the noise with some zen – and still experience a great view. Connect deeper with your yoga mate and with nature with Park Yoga at Trinity Bellwoods. It runs every Monday at 7 P.M. until the September long weekend and is donation-based so you choose how much to contribute.
The next time you’re thinking coffee date, dinner and a movie or any other conventional date, venture outside the city, get outdoors and reap in everything the GTA has to offer.
