Parking: If the parking lot is full, look for free on-street parking on Shawnmarr Road.
Cyclists can access Brueckner Rhododendron Garden from the Waterfront Trail. Note that the cycle path follows the Tecumseh Creek trail path, not the upper hill garden trail. There is a bicycle rack at the Garden (Public Washrooms) building where you can leave your bike and walk around the gardens.
