High Park is welcoming back visitors in-person to see the cherry blossom trees on Cherry Lane after a two-year pandemic hiatus.
Sakura trees are expected to reach peak bloom this week, so the park is restricting vehicle access and parking to accommodate visitors starting Monday, May 2.
Fifteen other locations in Toronto are also home to the trees, including Trinity Bellwoods, Edwards Gardens, and Exhibition Place.
Please note that vehicle access and parking inside #HighPark will be restricted starting May 2 for the duration of peak #CherryBlossom bloom, with the exception of TTC Wheel-Trans vehicles.

The City says tens of thousands of people take part in what has become a Toronto rite of spring.
Depending on the weather, the blossoms typically last four to 10 days.
They will also be livestreamed on the City’s cherry blossoms webpage.
