5 /5 Sam Keir: Autumn is my favourite time of the year and I was certainly treated to a fantastic display of autumnal magnificence! (Yes I know bit much but hey I love autumn!). Walked around here on way to Stadium Stomp and then afterwards to buffet breakfast across the road. Lots of people out in crisp autum air walking dogs or just themselves.

5 /5 Nae Convey: 5 stars for when there are no events on at the G if you are looking for a great place to walk your dog in Richmond and surrounding subirbs! Its easily the best park for dogs in the area, plenty of grass, trees and shade when the weather is hot. Lots of drinking taps for humans and canines too! And if your dog loves socialising with other dogs they will love it there, generally a great bunch of people in the dog walking community there and lots of well-behaved doggies. Just make sure you check that there are no events on before you go as it can get a bit dicey when there are so many cars around!
