Overview
Forestville War Memorial Playing Fields on Forestville Avenue features the Purple Poppy Dog Park — a fully fenced 24-hour off-leash area perfect for dogs who need secure, enclosed space to run. The fenced dog park sits at the northern end of the precinct and includes a smaller enclosure specifically designed for small and shy dogs, ensuring every pup finds their comfort zone. Amenities include water stations, seating for owners, waste bins, and nearby public toilets throughout the broader complex.
The Purple Poppy name commemorates service animals, honouring animal contributions to military history — a meaningful touch unique to this Forestville dog park. A second off-leash area on Field 3 operates on limited timed hours (10pm–8am weekdays, 10pm–7am weekends) and is unfenced, offering variation for different visiting preferences. Ample parking and comprehensive sporting facilities round out this well-resourced precinct.
This Forestville fenced dog park particularly suits owners seeking peace of mind with secure boundaries, and small or nervous breeds who benefit from a dedicated low-traffic enclosure.
Forestville War Memorial Playing Fields is managed by Northern Beaches Council.
