Etienne Brulé Park serves as a key access point to the Lower Humber River corridor in Toronto's west end, sitting at the centre point between the Humber River, Old Mill and Marshes, and the Lower Humber River Discovery Walks.

A parking lot here makes it a popular trailhead for the Humber River Recreation Trail. From the park, paved paths lead northwest along the riverbank, offering views of the meandering Humber and surrounding forest.

An unpaved route running right beside the water provides a more natural alternative. The trail is well suited for cyclists, hikers, dog walkers, and families, with minimal elevation gain along the valley floor.
