Virginius Reserve
Virginius Reserve in Revesby is one of Canterbury-Bankstown Council's designated off-leash dog areas, with a fenced enclosure where dogs can run off-lead. The wider reserve has a bike track, a short bushwalk along bridges crossing small waterways where children feed ducks, and waterside views — locals describe it as quiet and relaxing.
Dog poo bags and bins are provided, though visitors note the off-leash area's bins can get smelly. Outside the off-leash enclosure, dogs must stay on-leash. The reserve has BBQs, public toilets, sheltered seating, fitness equipment, and a playground, with easy parking on the street.

What people say
Two stars because contrary to Panania there are dog poo bags and some bins, but unfortunately some people that visit the off leash enclosure are selfish and entitled idiots that leave the poo on the grass (a few). The bin is this area stinks, it has bags but it stinks badly. Around the park I saw a creek, kind of milky looking "water", shows the difference between Eastern Suburbs parks and council - people and council over there care more and you can tell if you've lived in both areas, it's a shame Panania has such a careless council when its about pets we love, so I went to this park instead
Nice little park for the family, a small playground with a few benches. Celebrated a friend's son 3yr birthday. They were able to get council permit to setup a jumping castle at the park. Parking is also very easy to find.
Nice park for kids to play and a lot of grass space if you wanted to have a picnic. Also a bridge with a bit of water with ducks to feed which is nice
Great place for toddlers and older kids. An extensive bike track and nice 'bush walk'. Bridges over small waterways to search for ducks from. Could do with a bit of a clean up though, however it is a storm water channel
