An urban park in Toronto just received a special mention from the American magazine, National Geographic, thanks to its accessibility, plant and animal biodiversity, and mixed-surface trails. The article, titled "Here are 10 national parks in Canada you need to visit," released on Tuesday, spotlights the 37 national parks, 11 national park preserves, and 168 national historic sites within Canada. National Geographic highlights the fact that it is the only Canadian National Park accessible by public transit, despite being one of the largest urban parks in North America. Rouge National Urban Park wasn't the only Ontario-based park to receive a shoutout. These are the top 10 national parks mentioned on the list.
