Primarily suburban in development, Etobicoke is bordered on the east by the Humber River, on the south by Lake Ontario, on the west by Etobicoke Creek, Mississauga and Toronto Pearson International Airport. A former city, Etobicoke today makes up the western part of Toronto, Ontario as an administrative district.
WHAT DOES ETOBICOKE HAVE TO OFFER?
There is plenty to do and experience when in Etobicoke, as the municipality is brimming with beautiful, pocketed communities. A fine example is the shops on Bloor Street West near the Royal York subway station, as well as cozy restaurants that offer a fine dining experience. All of these contribute to the experience of taking a nice, relaxing stroll before dinner and exploring some of the community-oriented, smaller shops.
If you’d like to explore and enjoy in some opulence when visiting Etobicoke, definitely swing by the Kingsway area. There you’ll be able to feast your eyes on older, very large homes with tons of character, as well as a canopy of fully grown trees. We advise visiting this part of the municipality in the autumn for maximum pleasure. Similarly, there are many parks throughout Etobicoke, all of which are connected by many trails that often see residents going for a stroll, bike riding or jogging.

If you happen to be particularly fond of parks, definitely visit Centennial Park – the crown jewel of Etobicoke green surfaces.

Soccer and baseball fields, fishing, trails, hiking, a Triple Indoor Hockey Rink, an 18-hole Public Golf Course & Driving Range, Go-Karts, Frisbee Golf, BMX Biking, and even skiing can all be enjoyed in the park. You’ll also be able to experience a number of seasonal festivals in this great park.
The fact that Etobicoke has so many green, natural areas and that it is brimming with human activity, it goes without saying that wildlife is plentiful as well. There has been a noticeable increase in the number of wildlife species moving into the urban centre of Etobicoke in recent years, which may mean you could be in need of professional wildlife control services. This is because, as much as furry critters like squirrels, skunks, raccoons, and even brown bats may look cute and cuddly, they are still wild animals and you should not interact with them. Health hazards are always present, in addition to the fact these critters can wreak havoc on your property or residence.
