The Lakes of Cherrybrook is a dog-friendly park in West Pennant Hills.
Under the Companion Animals Act 1998, dogs must be on-leash at all times in all parks and public places. Dogs are prohibited within 10 metres of children's playground equipment and food preparation areas, from active sports fields during organised sport, public bathing areas, school grounds, and child care centres. Dog faeces must be removed immediately. (Source: The Hills Shire Council — Stay out of the Doghouse, thehills.nsw.gov.au.)
The Lakes of Cherrybrook form an interesting hub. The Macquarie Drive and Shepherd Drive junction lies at one corner, with their respective bus stands on the parameter; The Callicoma Bush Walk passes through it. Cherrybrook Village shopping centre and a petrol/ service station lie just across the road. The Greenway Park- Community Centre and a dog park are within 200 metres. Yet, its a quaint area amidst tall trees; a grass belt separates the lakes from the road. A cemented walkway, benches, barbecue area, picnic tables, drinking fountain for humans and pets are imaginatively placed. A large children's play area, still being further improved, lies just off the water body. There's fair biodiversity. Ducks, fishes, birds, iguanas, and many variety of plants abound. The point is, accessibility is no problem, parking is no problem. Its a good transit halt for walkers... I often grab a sandwich and coffee from Cherrybrook Village Shopping Centre and sit out leisurely in the Sun as part of my long walks. Ditto if I need to keep company to my grandchildren as their parents go grocery shopping at the Cherrybrook shopping centre. It's always a new experience in entertainment and learning. And a Joy!!
Fully fenced playground 🛝. Finally a playground suited to my sons age 👍. Fully fenced with plenty to do for little explorers . And plenty of room to roam n explore . There’s also a pond which you can walk around n take in the scenery whilst enjoying the great outdoors . Grassed areas outside the gate to pull up a picnic blanket while the kids are at play . By far my fav new park in the hills area
A very nice small relaxing walk or you can sit and enjoy a meal. There are some nice areas along the way to view the ducks swimming or spot the wildlife in the trees. The only sad thing is that the place was overgrown and looked unkept for awhile. It also links to others walks close by.
The park is very well maintained. The playground is excellent for children from 2 years old upwards.
A nice small park on the main road with waterfall, small walk trails and ok type park for toddlers to play . The nature beauty is that makes this place a visit provides a nice feeling when you visit. There is a mall right opposite and chairs with benches if you want to do picnic.
