As a frequent visitor to Windsor, I have always been drawn to the city's stunning riverfront, and Windsor Riverfront Park is undoubtedly the crown jewel of this vibrant urban landscape. Located along the Detroit River, this expansive park offers a serene and picturesque escape from the hustle and bustle of the city, providing visitors with a wealth of recreational opportunities and breathtaking views. One of the standout features of Windsor Riverfront Park is its impeccably maintained and lush green spaces. The well-manicured lawns and beautifully landscaped gardens create a tranquil and inviting atmosphere, perfect for a leisurely stroll, a picnic with friends and family, or simply taking in the stunning vistas of the Detroit skyline across the river. The park's extensive trail system is a true delight for both walkers and cyclists, offering ample opportunities to explore the riverfront and admire the breathtaking views. The paved paths are well-maintained and provide a smooth and enjoyable experience, with scenic overlooks and benches dotting the route, allowing visitors to pause and soak in the serene surroundings. One of the park's most impressive features is the iconic Ambassador Bridge, which soars majestically over the Detroit River, connecting Windsor to Detroit. The bridge's impressive scale and architectural design add a striking visual element to the park's landscape, making it a popular spot for photographers and sightseers alike. In addition to its natural beauty, Windsor Riverfront Park also boasts a range of amenities that cater to visitors of all interests. The park's event spaces and performance stages host a variety of cultural events and festivals throughout the year, providing a vibrant and lively atmosphere for those seeking entertainment and community engagement. Overall, Windsor Riverfront Park is a true gem in the heart of Windsor, offering a tranquil and picturesque respite from the city, while also providing a wealth of recreational and cultural opportunities. Whether you're seeking a peaceful escape, a scenic backdrop for your outdoor activities, or a lively community gathering place, this park is a must-visit destination for anyone exploring the Windsor waterfront.

i came here with my family 2 weeks ago and it was absolutely stunning, especially if you come during sunset hours. i didn't think i would have a lot of fun coming here, as i thought it was only the skyline, but there is just so much to see and experience. the electric scooters made the trip 10x better, they were so much fun. i definitely recommend riding them while you are here. there was something about seeing another country so close across the river that made it quite fascinating. it was never a dull moment. i would love to come back here again if i had the chance to experience it over again.

Beautiful beautiful beautiful, to start with beautiful downtown drive and first look of the river at the end of the drive. Ample of pay and park space right near the river. River cruise but make sure check the timings, long walk beside the river. Kids play area, bike track, e-scooter rental, casino but could only found one washroom that to not maintained. Beautiful downtown walk and ample of restaurants. My suggestion be there by 5 pm, try calling the cruise to book ur spot, parking free after 6 pm. And breathing taking sunset and Detroit view. The colour changing GM building. Enjoy.

This is a fantastic waterfront! There are many of kilometers of walking and biking trails. What make is very neat is the sculptures dotting the trails and you walk from the Ambassador Bridge to downtown. There are a number of great parks located along the walking path, a great spot for entertaining younger children. Right downtown, there is a huge Canadian flag, a large outdoor concert area in front of the Casino. There are a number of memorials in the downtown core..The Best part is the view of the United States across nthe river.

The Windsor Riverfront is a great place for a stroll to take in all the scenery, get some fresh air or even exercise (going for a jog or a bike ride). There are tons of art installations along the way so there are lots to see. We enjoyed walking along the path and taking photos of everything. I have added some photos of the art installations that I liked! There are also multiple memorial sites for previous wars, veterans, etc. May we always remember ❤️
