Sir Sandford Fleming Park
+ My Favorites
Enjoy a network of walking trails that traverse several different habitats, including a frog pond. The park has a sandy beach, as well as the Dingle Tower. The park is dedicated to Sir Sandford Fleming, inventor of time zones and engineer for the Canadian Pacific Railway.
