Parks & Trails 

Lorne Park Beautiful Flower Gardens

The City of Brantford prides itself on the quality parks and trails it provides season after season for residents and visitors to enjoy. Some parks provide a peaceful, relaxing setting where you can enjoy passive recreational activities, while others are venues for sports and active pursuits. The City's gorgeous private and public gardens have been recognized with several titles in the Communities in Bloom competition.

The City offers over 40 kilometres of natural trails that are perfect for running, cycling or hiking. With constant upgrades and additions, there's always somewhere new to explore along the way.

Did you know that Tutela Park is getting a makeover?

Renovation plans are underway and Parks and Recreation Staff have been working with the Eagle Place Community Association and area schools including Princess Elizabeth Public School (Grade 4/5), Bellview Public School (Grade 3), and Jean Vanier Catholic Elementary School (Grade 1) to develop a new playground.  Check out the attached plan.

The plans have not been finalized, so there is still time for us to incorporate any ideas that you may have!
