Start at this park and head East to begin the beautiful Waterfront Trail! The trail appears to stop, but at that point, you can keep going to Coronation Park if you like. You have to go through some residential streets, but soon you will find yourself back on the Waterfront Trail at the end of Bayview Road. Take a look at Google Maps for the exact route.
