The Port Lands

Ahoy maties? On this week’s episode, we explore the Toronto Port Lands where you can find old abandoned factories and tree graveyards, as well as nature trails and beach views. This walk is mostly safe and cozy on the Martin Goodman Trail, but if you’ve got a taste for danger, it’s got that too (if you so choose). Full steam ahead!
