10 Ways to Spend A Spring Day in Burlington
Explore a Waterfall
Any guesses on how many gorgeous waterfalls are in and around Burlington?
Spend Time with Some Animals
Visit the animals at Bronte Creek Provincial Park. Did you know they have roosters, goats, peacocks, cows and more? You can also bird watch and fish during the season.
It’s Always The Right Weather for Skating and Swimming
It’s always a treat to do something “not in season” like ice-skating in May or swimming in March! The City of Burlington has swimming and skating on almost every day at one of their arenas and community centres.

Take me out to the ball game…kids are free to attend Burlington Herd baseball games all season long!

Take a hike! Fresh air, wildlife and more are waiting for you at Cherry Hill Gate at the Royal Botanical Gardens, Mount Nemo Conservation Area and beyond!
