The Martin Goodman Trail is a multi-use trail with a two way bike path, a walking path, and many hidden trail paths that venture into wooded areas. Walking westward on the boardwalk which runs east and west parallel to Queen Street, you will eventually find yourself with a choice between northbound to Lakeshore Avenue or continue southwest onto the Martin Goodman Trail. It is all part of the Ashbridges Bay Park. There are plenty of boat docks, and fishing areas around here as well.
At sunset you can see the breathtaking view of Toronto's skyline and Lake Ontario. There are access points along the beach specific to the swimmer, the wader and the explorer. A bird sanctuary houses many trees with birds of varied species. I happened upon a baby cardinal, but unfortunately it grew way too dark to take any decent photos of them.
Just another trail in Toronto to explore! It really satisfies enough of the balance of nature, that it isn't really necessary to travel up north to be a part of it all. The trail extends about 20 km, from the Humber River in the west to Beaches Park in the east and connects to the Don River Trail.
Martin Goodman makes up part of the Waterfront Trail, which extends 900 kilometres from Niagara -on-the-Lake to the Quebec border, along Lake Ontario and the St. Lawrence River. (Parts of the trail have yet to be joined with each other.)
