High Park Toronto Sports Facilities

High Park offers many sports facilities for sports enthusiasts.

There are six public tennis courts in the park and the Howard Park Tennis Club offers private memberships. For more information call 416-769-5600. Non-members can play as well but on busy days there is a time limit (30 mins - 1hr) to give other players a chance to play.

On the west side of Colborne Lodge Drive there are three baseball diamonds and two soccer fields. Permits for these fields must be obtained by calling 416-394-5595.

The outdoor swimming pool - near the baseball diamonds - is open during the summer only just as the ice skating rink is only open in the winter months. (The skating rink operates as a tennis court in the summer.)

Other than tennis, baseball, soccer, swimming and ice skating you can play "free style" games such as badminton or practice with a rugby ball. The park is full of beautiful trails ideal for running and walking / jogging. If you like running on dirt trails versus on sidewalks then you will love High Park!

Riding bicycles is only permitted on paved roads and remember, no swimming or boats of any kind are allowed in the ponds. I wish there was a canoe or paddleboat rental facility...I heard there used to be one and hopefully one day the city will start it up again.
