What we liked about the park
It's hidden, peaceful and the Japanese-inspired garden was enjoyable to walk through
The traffic at the park was very low, making it an ideal low-trigger spot for reactive dogs
What we didn't like about the park
It's not a very long path to walk along. The entire loop is less than a kilometre and that's already going the long way around. It's likely not enough to tire out your dog.
