Bicentennial Park sits on the Glebe foreshore with views across to Anzac Bridge and the harbour. The off-leash section is west of the canal, giving dogs a defined area to run while the rest of the park stays on-leash. It's part of a longer waterfront walk that connects through to the Fish Markets, so you can make the outing as short or as long as you like. Dogs are not permitted in the playground area.

Nice park next to the water with views to the harbour bridge and the Anzac bridge. It’s not closed as it was reported, but several areas are closed off due to the presence of asbestos in the mulch. It has an interesting walkway over the water, picnic area, a large kids playground and is dog friendly.

Beautiful park and foreshore. Great area for a walk along the harbour. There is a playground nearby and areas for dogs to run. Picturesque in the afternoons.

Lots of fig trees! Beautiful scenery with lots of parking. Close to bus stop. Highly recommended for a quiet walk or picnic or just chilling under a tree.

Beautiful day and night, especially during early sunrise. Along the harbour is a lovely track from the far end to the eastern part all the way to almost fish market. Morning seeing rowing training, dog walkers, runners, and some on bicycles. Dogs are mostly on leash lately although many are still off leash. Probably the safest to walk in the morning as more people are around. At night it is dead quiet. Great for romantic chat or people wanting solitude under moonlight.

Today was a nice windy day with blue sky but not too sunny
