Gage Park is Brampton's 'downtown' park, located directly across the street from the Civic Centre. The park features a prominent gazebo, and a trail that is used by rollerbladers in the summer - ice skaters in the winter.
The park is nestled in "old" Brampton, and is surrounded by the history of the town (now a city). Across the street you will find the original County court house, which is now a museum and art gallery. There is a children's play area, and a wading pool. The park also features evening concerts in the warmer months.
