Walks from Liberty Village
My Favourite Walking Routes Around Liberty Village
Living in the city, I found walking to be a great way to get around and explore the sites. Here are my some of my favourite walking routes.
Located 10 mins from my building, The Bentway is a unique public space that transforms 1.75km underneath Toronto’s Gardiner Expressway into a new gathering place. Opened in January 2018, The Bentway hosts offers year-round activities and events, including gardens, a skate trail, recreational amenities, public markets, public art, special exhibitions, festivals, theatre and musical performances.
The Bentway is also a great way to access the popular attractions and destinations – from Fort York National Historic Site, Ontario Place and Exhibition Place to Harbourfront Centre and the CN Tower.

Rated as one of Toronto's best places to take a walk, Marilyn Bell Park is a great natural space to enjoy along the waterfront. On a clear day you can easily see the escarpment across the lake.
Located along the Great Lakes Waterfront Trail, you will find many other Toronto sites are within a short stroll of the park.
If you cut through Liberty Village from my place, the park is 2.3 km away. If you want to head straight to the lake and walk west along the shoreline to access the park, it will be just over 3 km away.
