Frenchs Forest Showground has a large fenced off-leash area with a separate section for small dogs — a genuine split that gives smaller breeds their own space. The enclosure has double-gated entry points, waste bags, and bins. The grass is well-maintained even through winter. Parking is plentiful with two free lots nearby, and there's a shopping centre within walking distance. It's a practical, well-designed dog park.

Dog rules

–Two fenced areas including a section for small and shy dogs. Large showground area for bigger dogs.

Clean. Excellent playground for children. Huge off-leash dog park. Shopping mall nearby. Plenty of free parking - 2 free parking lots. 3 stadiums for soccer, skatw park and 5-6 full basketball courts. Machine exercising area for elderly and cricket training place. Gets very busy on weekends.

Perfect dog park Doggie double dog to secure dogs from accidentally leaving dog park, grass even in winter, plenty of carpark spaces around the park and of course lots of dogs. It's Sunday morning so probably more than usual. There are at least 20 dogs here. They come and go, play interact. A bo us is they have benches along the perimeter inside the dog park so you can find the perfect sunny spot to sit and chill. Plenty of bio poo bag dispenser and also right next to kids playground and sport field. Also there is a circular walking path around the outside of the dog park. Extra space away from traffic. Highly recommended!

Great place to unleash your dog lots of benches to sit down inside even there is water for the dogs to drink from. Lots of bins and dog bags supplied to pick up ur dogs business. All I ask is that people pick up there own dog poo.

I go with my dog Charlie mostly every day. It's very well fenced. Good draining. Close to our place. People are very friendly, some are the opposite. The grass area needed to be fixed before the opening day. Dog walkers need to pick up dog stuff more frequently. The upgrade is going really well every day. Probably finished in 2 weeks time.
