It is bounded by Queen Street East on the southeast, Bramalea Road on the northeast, and Central Park Drive on the north and west sides.

[3] In 1970, the City of Brampton bought the 40-hectare (100-acre) farm from the last owners (surveyed in 1820s by Richard Bristol and eventually acquired by the Crawfords whom expanded their holdings from 1834 to 1870s and sold by the Crawfords in 1946),[4] with the intention of building a large park,[5] paying for land and facilities from the proceeds of subdivision agreements.

They also offer mini-putt golf, formal gardens and greenhouse, pedal boats, pony rides, petting zoo and barn,[8] splash pad and children's playground, and a BMX/skateboard park.

[10][11] The hill is man-made, but contrary to popular belief, is not a former landfill site, but is constructed from the excavations for basements of many early Bramalea houses.

City of Brampton hosts a Tough Run 5-kilometre (3.1 mi) adventure race every September.
