St. Catharines has earned its reputation as Ontario?s Garden City with over one thousand acres of public parks, gardens and trails. Over two hundred and fifty displays with more than one hundred and ninety-five annuals and fifteen thousand perennials are scattered throughout the city. The region is also home of one of Canada?s largest greenhouse industries with both flower and nursery stock production.

St. Catharines offers up a wide variety of recreational activities year round: trails, fishing charters, cycling tours, sky diving, wind surfing, beaches, boating, marinas, sports fields, arenas, tobogganing, skating and cross-country skiing venues are all close at hand. Scenic greenways trace long established and well-travelled natural corridors such as the Lake Ontario shoreline, the Twelve Mile Creek and the Niagara Escarpment. Each trail has been designed to provide enjoyable and convenient access to the City?s parks while incorporating natural landscapes, larger recreational areas and various points of interest.

Since the opening of the first Welland Canal in 1933, the city has seen four different canal systems, whether modified or newly constructed, carved into its geographical landscape. The fourth and present-day canal forms the majority of the city's eastern boundary. The first three of the city's canals have largely been buried, portions of it beneath the present-day Highway 406 and Queen Elizabeth Way. Other remnants of the original canals can still be seen in various locations throughout the city, many of which are hidden within forested areas designated as city parks. There has been a growing movement in recent years to restore the original routing of the Welland Canal through the city. The restored waterway and locks would be open to pleasure craft and create a new tourist attraction within the city.
