FREE Outdoor Places, Barrie
Free outdoor places in Barrie, Ontario
Barrie is medium-sized city located in the heart of Central
Ontario. The beautiful location (situated on the shore of Lake Simcoe) makes
Barrie a really attractive place for tourists and people who are interested in
buying and investing in properties. Of course, there are many other things that
you can see and do in Barrie. For example, this city is also known for the
beautiful and well-organized free outdoor places where people go to relax and
enjoy nature or to get involved in certain activities (usually with their
children).
That’s why I have created a list of outdoors parks, beaches and
other places where you can enjoy your free time without spending a dime. Keep
in mind that some of these places may charge for parking, so it is also a good
idea to use public transportation or your bicycle to get there. These places
are especially attractive during the summer period when the weather is hot. Now
let’s highlight some of these places.
1. Eastview
Park (Grove St.)
This park has public parking and besides having walks,
many people use it to play tennis and soccer. It features a playground for the
kids too. During the winter period you can enjoy the outdoor ice rink. You can
find this park between Johnson Street and Cook Street.
2. Ferndale
Park (Summerset Drive)
This is another beautiful park that covers more than 12.000
acres. It has public parking and it is known as a place where people usually
perform various sports activities. There is a soccer field, tennis courts, baseball
fields, basketball courts and playground for the kids. Ferndale Park is located
right beside Ferndale Woods School.
3. Sunnidale
Park (Sunnidale Road)
Sunnidale Park is a bit further from downtown Barrie, but
this is a trip that is definitely worth taking. This is one of the largest
parks in this area covering more than 48.000 acres. Those looking for scenic
views and those interested in long walks will surely enjoy this park. Sunnidale
Park features a public parking and several playgrounds for the youngest. It can
be found right between Cundles Road West and Highway 400.

connecting Barrie with Springwater Township. It represents a multi-use
recreational trail that can be used by both experienced and inexperienced
hikers.
