With the city being plunged back into stage 2 and sunny weather in the forecast, it’s the perfect weekend to get outside and explore Toronto’s natural beauty.

What better way to experience the great outdoors than by watching the salmon run?

Every year in September and October, thousands of salmon swim upstream through Ontario’s waterways to spawn, according to the Great Lakes Guide. With COVID-19 limiting many fall activities, more people are getting out to witness the phenomenon.
 

The fish journey through rivers and streams connected to the great lakes, returning to the same place they were born to lay their eggs, says the guide.

Although they can weigh more than 13 kilograms, they’re able to jump over three meters out of the water as they navigate obstacles, says the Toronto and Region Conservation Authority (TRCA).
