Christmas Hill
A shorter hike than Mount Doug with an unbeatable view of Swan Lake. Technically, this is not a stroll because the hill is inaccessible to anything with wheels; but, in a backpack or carrier, an outdoorsy toddler would revel in this hiking adventure. She can also practice her own climbing at Rainbow Park, which you will find midway between Christmas Hill and Swan Lake.
Swan Lake
Swan Lake makes an ideal strolling destination after Rainbow Park, which has the two-exit toddler tower that I like. Yes, I have taken the stroller around the lake, but only because my husband and I were very optimistic and pressed on until it was too late to turn back. In any case, there is not much even ground beyond the floating foot bridge, so bring a carrier or backpack to avoid any regrets on this moderate hike.
