Went up one time and go back because too muddy. Then second time didn't really run through the loop but go up to the loblaw supermarket and then go back down to the water treatment plant. Great for running but easy to get lost. Be prepare for your GPS if running. BTW, be careful to run in the spring time because it is pretty muddy and wet.
Busy trail that you have to share with mountain bikes that go pretty fast and don't really like sharing the path with walkers. Still, interesting twisting terrain through dense wooded area. lots of parking at the Loblaws.
For urban-intense Toronto, this trail is pretty decent. You get some views of the Lower Don River and some walks in the woods, which are varied enough for small kids. The cliff area overlooking the river can be a bit slippery when its wet.
