Ames Creek is a beautiful spring-fed stream that flows through Glen Stewart Ravine and is one of the few remaining natural watercourses in Toronto’s urban landscape. It winds along the forest floor beneath a canopy of red oaks and maples, with raised boardwalks allowing visitors to follow its course while protecting the wetland habitat. The creek continues toward Lake Ontario, where it eventually disappears underground before reaching the waterfront.
