The Bentway is a unique urban park beneath the Gardiner Expressway offering an energetic mix of public art, walking trails, and year-round programming. Visitors come for outdoor skating in winter, art installations, community events and relaxed waterfront-adjacent spaces — expect lively crowds during events but plenty of open space for quiet walks and photography. It’s ideal for curious locals and tourists looking for an unexpected cultural hub in Toronto’s lakeside corridor.
