Dog rules

Central Coast Council's "Guide to being PAWSOME!" booklet states: "When exercising in a public place, keep your dog on a lead and under the control of a competent person." "This means when you are outside your home, including on the footpath, your dog must be on a lead — except in designated dog off-leash exercise areas." The booklet also notes that under the Companion Animals Act 1998, dogs are prohibited from schools, shopping centres, beaches (except in designated areas), food preparation areas, playgrounds and wildlife protection areas. This park is not on Central Coast Council's published off-leash list, so the council's general on-leash rule applies. (Source: Central Coast Council — "Guide to being PAWSOME!"

There are signs posted 1080 wild dog/fox baits and no dogs allowed. Clearly NOT dog friendly walk.

Excellent park with plenty of walking trails, bbq area with tables and seating. Lots of parking located in the hills around Wyoming

Best place nearby to go for bike ride and explore some nice trails. However, most beginner riders, like me, find the hills difficult but once you get to the top of the Rumbalara Reserve you can appreciate nice view of Gosford. There's a parking spot and BBQ area and toilets available and also it's not a busy area. In short, it’s all about having fun...and go on trials riding is a great way to enhance our road riding!

Sensational views, walking tracks for people of all ability levels, and well-maintained amenities. Heaps of animals to admire, such as bellbirds, goannas, wallabies and turkeys. There are even patches of rainforest! Time to have a Rumbal in this jungle 🦕
