Rosehill Reservoir

The Rosehill Reservoir overlooks swanky Rosedale to the south, the wooded areas of David A. Balfour Park to the east, and is flanked by apartments to the north and west. The paths around the reservoir are good shortcuts between these areas, since there isn’t a lot of north-​south pedestrian access through the neighbourhoods on this side of Yonge Street.
The huge, flat grass plateau (on top of the reservoir) is obviously not for agoraphobics, but is a good place for dogs to run around unencumbered, and has a few decorative ponds as well. The east end has a nice, fenced-​off garden area for those wanting a more sedate park experience.
