Good parking and great for the dogs. But too many people speeding past. Be careful near the road.

Huge area for kids to run around and ride bicycle. Great place for picnic and flying kite! If u want BBQ area, there's none tho.. This park has a lot of ball games during weekend and there's only a few tables here n there with cover. There's a small playground for kids and gym area next to it!

The main baseball field is terrible. Council must make an effort to flatten it out. It is surprising that someone has not been seriously injured already.

I initially thought this was Rolf park and was about to write a stern letter to council explaining my shock and horror of celebrating this fallen Australian icon. I was then gently corrected by my wife that is in fact Rofe park. I am still annoyed though because I used my good biro and a clean sheet of paper from my printer, such waste, so now I am writing to council to ask for a reimbursement for that.

A beautiful clean park with public bathrooms, bubblers, a flat walking track, views of the Berowra Valley and exercise equipment. If you’re walking there from Asquith, there’s a short little bush track leading to the park from the end of Old Berowra Rd
