Forsyth Park is off-leash under North Sydney Council's area-wide policy. The park has two ovals, a community garden, a playground, waste bags, toilets, and parking. It's a well-used community park with a friendly dog-walking atmosphere.
North Sydney is a dog-friendly area and all Council parks and public reserves are off-leash areas, except for bushland areas, playing fields when organised sporting events are in progress, and venues where dogs are not allowed. Dogs must be under effective control at all times. (Source: North Sydney Council — northsydney.nsw.gov.au)
I being my dog here and it's one of the better dog parks in the lower north shore. Wide open space and, in the evenings when I visit, always lots of doggies to play with. It is a sports field, so some evening there might be sports on, but still heaps of space for your doggo to run. There is also a playground and urban gym set up at one end of the park.
Excellent venue for families. Adventure playground, community garden and large oval for a very friendly community of dog owners.
Great safe park that’s engaging for toddlers and older kids. Ice big oval as well. Lovely view of the city/bridge and plenty of parking
The park itself is great, there are two fields, one probably for cricket and the other for soccer. However it is important to note the lack of transport and accessibility. Nevertheless, it is great especially for dogs, or even for events.
Lovely park for cricket, Soccer and kids playground! Great for sunsets and pets
