Eastwood Park is a well-regarded dog-friendly park where dogs are welcome on lead. You'll find BBQs and toilets nearby, while Provence Garden Cafe Eastwood is around 300 metres away for an easy post-walk coffee.
Dogs are permitted on-leash under the NSW Companion Animals Act. Dogs must be under effective control at all times. City of Ryde's Dog Off-Leash Areas page states these are the only areas where dogs may run free without a lead. This venue is not on the council's off-leash list; off-leash use is not authorised here. (Source: City of Ryde — Dog Off-Leash Areas, ryde.nsw.gov.au.)
Lovely park for picnics, playtime and sports. Very big with an oval and two seperate park areas. The park above the oval is much shadier and has more play equipment. There are also two different public toilets, open during light hours. Small BBQ area in the upper park, too.
Pleasant area with an oval, playground, BBQ, and an additional flat grassy area. Lots of people enjoy going on walks or runs around the oval, sometimes there's cricket on the weekends, the playground is popular, and there's a croquet club next to the oval.
Very small park, has a children playground, one BBQ stove. Few shelters, bench and tables.
The park has 3 toilet areas, 2 play areas, cricket field, benches, croquet club plus a war memorial.
While the facilities are nice and it's very quiet on weekdays the park isn't that well maintained. There are three tables that are rarely occupied and it's a great place to have a coffee and a pork roll.
We check council regulations, official sources, and community reviews to verify dog access at every venue. Access may change — always check on-site signage. Something wrong or missing? Submit feedback. How it works.
