If you’ve heard someone call it “the lagoon at Noel Booth,” this is the place: Brookswood Pond, tucked into the woods behind the ball diamonds. The Township puts the loop at about four kilometres, it’s flat the whole way, and the gravel is wide enough for a stroller and a dog side by side.

The pond loop

The trail runs through forest around the pond, with benches about halfway for a sit and a look across the water. There’s an open grass field beside the pond that works for a picnic or a game of catch. In the fall, check Anderson Creek in the park: the Township lists it as a spot to watch salmon spawning.

The Noel Booth Trail itself is one of the longer trails in Brookswood. It winds past the six diamonds and into the back woods, so you can make the walk as short or as long as you like.

Noel Booth Community Park

The park sits on what was once the Klammer gravel quarry. The Township put $7.65 million into upgrades that reopened in April 2025: lit softball diamonds, better drainage, stormwater treatment, trail repairs and raised pedestrian bridges. In September 2026 a new custom playground opened, built to be more accessible, with an accessible path linking the parking lot, playground, trails and the school next door. Its play pieces nod to local history, including the 1939 Diamond T bus from the old N. Booth General Store in Fernridge.

Saturday 5k

There’s a free, timed 5 km parkrun on the park’s trail paths on Saturday mornings. Register once on the parkrun site and bring your barcode.

Visiting well

Dogs are welcome on leash and in the off-leash area; bag it and bin it. Ball tournaments on summer weekends fill the lot, so walk in from 36 Avenue if it’s busy.
