Accessibility
The park offers accessible washrooms. While some trails are surfaced and intended to be obstacle-free, the primary loop trails (North and South) contain uneven terrain, rocks, and tree roots that are not suitable for strollers or wheelchairs. The main path to the Brock Harris Lookout is relatively even gravel but may still present challenges for mobility devices.
Parking
Free parking is included with the park admission fee. There are two main parking areas: the Upper Parking lot at 5317 Guelph Line and the Lower Parking lot located at 3601 No. 2 Side Road.
Transit
There is no direct public transit service to the park entrance. The nearest Burlington Transit stops (Route 2 or 3) are located at Guelph Line and Dundas Street, which is approximately a 5km (60-minute) walk from the park. Visitors without vehicles often take an Uber from the Burlington GO Station.
Seasonal Note
The park is open year-round. During winter, trails are not treated for snow and ice, and hikers are advised to wear supportive boots with good grip or ice cleats. Fall foliage season (October) is the busiest time of year, making advanced reservations highly recommended.
