Mississauga.

Mississauga sits on the north shore of Lake Ontario in Peel Region, west of Toronto, with the Credit River running through the centre of the city and emptying at Port Credit. The Mississauga reach of the Waterfront Trail runs roughly 22 km along Lake Ontario from Marie Curtis Park at the Toronto boundary west through Lakefront Promenade Park, Port Credit, J.C.

Saddington Park, Richard's Memorial Park, Jack Darling Memorial Park, and the Rattray Marsh boardwalk to Joshua's Creek at the Oakville line. The Culham Trail runs another 13 km north along the east bank of the Credit River from the 91-hectare Erindale Park through the Riverwood Conservancy to Streetsville Memorial Park at the Brampton boundary.

Rattray Marsh, managed by Credit Valley Conservation, is the last remaining lakefront marsh on the Canadian shore of Lake Ontario between Toronto and Burlington — a 36-hectare coastal wetland on the Atlantic Flyway. The City manages roughly 500 parks and 300 km of on- and off-road trails across the municipality.

Mississauga is named for the Mississaugas of the Credit First Nation, the Anishinaabe Nation whose ancestral territory included the lower Credit River watershed; the Nation's reserve relocated to New Credit, near Hagersville, in the 1840s and is not within the city's current municipal boundaries, but the Treaty Lands and Territory framing is foundational to the place. Downtown Toronto is roughly 30 minutes by car or GO Transit; Oakville is immediately west.
