Phil Balsor

We took a wrong turn and ended up here. We had some hamburgers and fries etc etc so we went in anyways and we walked a bit. Yadda yadda yadda the etc etc and we ended up sitting at a bench and eating or some what. It was 10/10 walkable.

Been working there for about a week. Helping to make it better with bringing sand

Amazing place it's great great slides great pool great everything

Heather Allan

a beautiful park with multi-uses for all ages. this should be the rule not the exception with the parks in the city. there is not a heck of a lot for teenagers to do in this city and as we all know, idle hands are the devil's playground. this park has a wonderful bike park brought by the rotary club. it is well maintained and the bike club is there pretty well every weekend it's open to offer help to novice to pro. there are also walking trails and green space and ample parking. so there is something for every age.

Ian Rolls-Carson

Awesome trails to walk.

Christopher Donaldson

Really well designed, accessible and varied park. A dirt bike trail, regular trails, sports fields, etc.

Dewan Karim

One of great park in Brantford. Excellent trail, rich forest view. Relaxing place.

Jeremy Read

Great place to take the kids!

Diane Demurak

OMG! I wish this place was around when my children were young! It looks like so much fun! So many hills and jumps, just like you see the pros using on TV. I think anyone from 8 to 28 would have a great time here! The only reason that I didn't give 5 stars; I'm concerned about what would happen if there was an injury as, obviously, there are no emergency medical personnel on site.

Jen Cox

Fishing spot

Lyndsay Schincariol

The parking lot is a death trap for cars.

Opal McAuley

Parking lot is in bad need of repair

Paul Desjardins

You like outside you like waterworks park.

Troy

Awesome bike track. Fun for kids.

Steve Bolton

Quiet in the mornings. Needs signs to remind No Smoking

Divyesh Dobariya

Beautiful place...

Steven Paiero

Great place for a casual stroll! Beautiful forest with very little poison ivy (if any) but a bit of stinging nettle. Only criticism is the locals hitting golf balls from the other side of the riber towards one of the river side trail as we were walking along!

Tina Horton

Really nice park! The dogs loved it!

Toxic Media

Beautiful

Nice walk

Nice fields for soccer and baseball, but really close together. Not enough parking, especially with the new addition of the bike park. There are washrooms, rather than porta-potties which is nice!

Kelly St. John

Great free entertainment for kids away from their game consoles.

Monte Hardy

Great trails. Beautiful forests besides the Grand River. Lots of wildlife and even an eagle's nest.

GC

(Translated) Quiet! All park trails are good for walking or cycling. Sitting on the bank of the clear Grand River is a balm. There are benches on various sections of the trails. There is a barbecue area. Cell phone signal throughout the park. (Original) Tranquilo! Todas as trilhas do parque são boas para caminhar ou andar de bicicleta. Sentar na margem do límpido Grand River é um bálsamo. Há bancos em vários trechos das trilhas. Há uma área para fazer churrasco. Sinal de celular em todo o parque.

go during summer

Gary Ferris

The trail here is great. It's about a 5km loop from the parking along the berm to Wilkes Dam and back. Suggest taking the berm out and on your return there's a trail that follows the water intake, sort of a canal, that will take you back. In the summer there's a great bike park there as well!

Frank Quinto

Awesome walks

BradJane Hale

The cardinals and the company!

Eckogen

The park is relatively clean and offers a variety of trails. There are also some Pokestops here.

Dan Jelly

I sat on a rock and ate a sandwich. The rock was a bit uncomfortable, so I can only award the place 4 stars. Get softer rocks. Sandwich was 5-stars, but I brought it in with me.

Bill Jordan

It was all right .lots of kids riding their bikes on the San .And other people were playing baseball .The weather was great a sunny day .

Lawrence Horton

This trail is amazing. Since it's paved kids can ride skateboards or rollerblades not just bikes. Lots of friendly people along trail.

Diana Ferris

Great walking trails along Grand River. Will go back in October to see trees in autumn colours

Walt Howarth

It's a beautiful place to visit any time of the year.

laurier lady

These park itself is quite nice and well groomed, dogs for the most part are leashed, many different trail options but the roadway to get in is in pretty rough shape. More moguls than the bike park has, the city needs to do some repairs as I'm sure it's pretty rough on vehicles and not very attractive

Paul Vandenberg

Loved the view.

Claire Andrew

Lovely walk

Dereck Bowen

Beautiful place to walk or ride and observe the wildlife and scenery!

Pete Pongrac

Beautiful peaceful park, beside the best River in Ontario!

Dylan Ross

J Hogg

First visit to bike park and worth the drive from Guelph. lots to do and all levels from little ones to pro's over big jumps. good shae and nice trails also. make sure to go when not been rain or it is closed.

Helen Zuidema

I walk the grand river trails behind waterworks park. If I could give it a 10 I would. My sanguary. My secret place so dont tell anyone ty

Kristina S

This place is a great spot to park at if you are looking to do some trails. Also has a bike course that is always pretty busy every time I have been there.

Ashley Porteous

Beautiful

melissa Jekinsjan

Ok place

olivia mitchell

I come across off leash dogs in this area way too often. If you have a reactive dog, I would stay away from the area...or be prepared to defend your dog. This is not an off leash dog park, but people use it as so. There is a sign infront of the park stating leash and scoop for anybody who would like to question that.

Kyle Ford

This is one of Brantford's finest gems. There are several kilometres of wooded trails, as well as the elevated paved trail. There is a huge multi sport field and the bike park full of dirt jumps and dirt tracks for bicycles. A great place.

David Smyth

Very picturesque park.

April S

Nice trails to walk on, bike park and soccer field plus a baseball diamond. Great place to get out and enjoy nature

Steven Andrews

Place for a good easy hike with the family

Frisky Lisky

Nice park. Has a baseball diamond, soccer field and a bike park. Also contains a picnic tables under a pavilion and access to the Grand River further beyond. Very nice place. Mindful of the fact your in Brantford, and might encounter some interesting folk!

Mike Mitchell

DJ Curtis

Great place to get out in nature

Mukarram Ali

Hidden gem, absolute picturesque...

andrew allison

Just opened for summer June 14 2017

tony kelly

North bound trail has been widened of weeds so much nicer now to walk and the dead trees have been either removed or cut back from the trail...

Maureen Capel

Beautiful well kept trails. The bike park looks fun but not after a rainfall.

Dkbluemax K

SQUARE SILO built by Thomas and Hartley Berry in 1903. Stone was taken from the nearby Grand River bed and used to build these very unique square silos. There is one at Waterworks Park (Lew Witton Fields) and one down on the west side of Birkett Lane. Only two square silos in Brantford. I have never seen one anywhere else. A must see to check out! The pics shown of the square silo hidden in the trees is the silo on Birkett Lane.

Len Tessaro

It's a great nature escape walking or cycling

Leonard Palma

I have been told that it's a great place to take pre and early teens for a family day of fun. I've also been told it's a good place for an afternoon date

It was a warm and quiet day and no one around.

Anu John

A very good place to be close to Nature. It has well kept hiking and cycling trail and a BMX trail too. Good for people of all ages groups. The Grand River is good for fishing. When we went, was very shallow so we could walk through the river. Pets are welcome too

Robert Shellington

Nice clean park, well kept

瀬川康介

(Translated) It was a timeless running course with continuous trails. (Original) トレイルがずっと続いて、飽きのこないランニングコースでした。

John

The city has put in a bike zone. It is setup with hills, ramps, and jumps.

Sam deZ

Great place to enjoy nature what ever the season. We have been here many times in different seasons and had great fun with the family.

Salima Lavallee

Awesome trail!

Ray Firby

Has parking... Dirt bike hills and jumps for all ages. Picnic shelter with tables. Connected to many trails including SC Johnson trail for walk, jog, bike. Diversity of nature.... Trees, plants, birds...

Joanne Sarson

One of our 'go tos' for a short or long walk. Multiple trails mean you can take a short hike or long. Wilderness style trail not a rail trail....though a paved path runs though the middle starting at Wilkes Dam. Mostly hikers, cyclists ....the odd time a dirt bike. People do not always keep their dogs on a leash.....or clean up after them. :( There are paths that go near the River and you often see people fishing. There is also a bike park close by...located near the 'bus Barnes' (City Buses left overnight)

Keith Etherington (Beard)

Clean

Valerie Vanderwoerd

Love how accessible the Grand is for safe and scenic walks.

s Freeman
