What do you do if you love the urban atmosphere of the city (and the luxury of your Burlington condo) but crave a healthy dose of Mother Nature at the same time? The city of Burlington offers you the best of both worlds, with a bustling urban centre and an abundance of gorgeous green space that make for a great getaway from the city.

Times Square Condominiums is within walking distance of Bronte Creek Provincial Park.  This pastoral, all-season oasis between Burlington and Oakville offers a place to unwind and step back in time.  With an 1890s farmhouse, play barn, animals, an outdoor playground, camping, swimming, nature trails, and bike paths, there is something to suit every taste.

The Molinaro Group’s Strata Condominium is within walking distance of Spencer Smith Park, a six-hectare park featuring an observatory, exhibits, a fine dining restaurant, the 10,000f² Rotary Centennial Pond (used for skating in the winter and model sailboats in the summer), Dofasco Waterjet Plaza and a playground with a climbing wall.  It is where popular summer festivals, such as the Sound of Music and Rotary RibFest, are held.  

Burlington’s Royal Botanical Gardens is the perfect place to go if you want to take time to smell the roses (and lilies and orchids). And if you’re looking for a more active way to spend the day, visitors to the Royal Botanical Gardens can go bird watching, tend to one of the gardens and even explore the area’s hiking trails.

Speaking of hiking, one of the nation’s best trails is just in your backyard. Bruce Trail is Canada’s oldest and longest (over a thousand kilometres) footpath.

With so much green space to explore, there’s always something new to see when you step outside.
For those who want a taste of the great outdoors without leaving the comfort of home, there is the spectacular rooftop terrace at Davies Smith Developments’ Ironstone Condominiums and Lofts. Take a relaxing soak in the hot tub or host a dinner party for your closest friends in the outdoor kitchen and then unwind with a glass of wine by the terrace fireplace.
