Written by Multi-Area Developments | on May 18, 2018 | Posted in Moving to a new Neighbourhood
No doubt about it, Summit Park is a great place for families to live at and call home; day-after-day, year-after-year.
It’s also a great place to discover, enjoy, and experience – whether you’re a resident of the area or simply passing through.
With that in mind, there are many pleasant ways for you and your family to spend time at Summit Park.
Beautiful, spacious parks
The lungs of any community are its parks and greenspaces. It’s where nature thrives, children play, and friends meet to catch up.
Having convenient access to clean parks is important to Multi-Area Developments.
That’s why, when developing the siteplan for Summit Park, we took into account park space for everyone, young and old, to enjoy.
Summit Park (Pinehill Drive & Datoka Blvd.)
The natural crown jewel which takes its name from the community surrounding it, Summit Park is one of the most attractive parks you’ll discover in Hamilton.
At 5.33 acres, it’s a large park , with plenty for you to do:
- Soccer field.
- Basketball court.
- Children’s playground equipment.
- Covered pavilion.
- Benches.
- Walking/running path.
Of course, there’s also plenty of greenspace too; perfect for organizing a game of football with your friends, having an outdoor picnic with the kids, or simply enjoying the scenery on your own.
Bellagio Park (Bellagio Ave. & Fletcher Rd.)
One kilometer west (approximately a 15 minute walk) of Summit Park is Bellagio Park.
Anchored by the New Our Lady of the Assumption Elementary School, Bellagio Park is 5.0 acres of thriving greenspace and people have access to:
- Basketball court.
- Playground equipment.
- Walking bath.
- Rest benches.
- Civic pavilion.
Since Bellagio Park shares nearby space with the school, it’s the perfect place for kids to burn off energy after a day in class, or to hang out and have fun during the summer.
Upcoming New 3rd Park (Will Be Added to Upcoming Phases)
As Summit Park grows, so too will the parks in the immediate area.
3rd Park
This new 3rd park (which does not yet have a name) is planned to have 2.0 acres of greenspace and many of the amenities of the other local parks:
- Walking path.
- Bench.
- Shaded pavilion structure.
- Swing set.
- Children’s play structure.
The Eramosa Karst
Figuratively located in backyard of the Summit Park community, the Eramosa Karst Conservation Area is a wonderful way to explore nature and get a little bit of exercise too.
The Eramosa Karst
Scattered throughout the Eramosa Karst are underground caves, streams, and meadows. As a matter of fact, the Eramosa Karst is designated as an Area of Natural and Scientific Interest in Ontario.
Other things to do in the Eramosa Karst include:
- Over 7km of walking/hiking trails, bridges, and boardwalks leading you through stunning rock formations and pristine forests.
- Interpretive signage throughout the Eramosa Karst displays fascinating facts about the area and its history.
As mentioned above, there are caves for you to enter, explore, and experience. Some are large while others are a tight fit.
