    I walk through Fairview Park every day without fail. It's a lovely expanse of greenery which…read morebridges the gap between North Strand and Clontarf (the gap being the suburb of Fairview). The park has a fairly substantial playground area, so is ideal for families. There's also lots of space so you could claim a whole area of the park for a family picnic, rather than just the tuft of grass you'd be allowed at Stephens Green. Tree-lined pedestrian and bike pathways traverse the park, which makes it a popular route for commuters and cyclists on their way into the city or out to Clontarf Promenade. There is always something interesting to see in Fairview Park - last week I witnessed an awe-inspiring tai chi session, and on occasion I've stopped to watch hurling matches and boot camp training. It's not really a 'destination' park, but if you happen to be in the area, it's definitely worth taking a picnic.

    There are far too many pit bulls off the lead for my liking - out for a walk, one rogue one jumped…read moreup at us, barking manically. "Don't worry," called his prone owner from his position on a hillock. "He won't do anything to you, he's grand." I would hate to see either of them on a bad day. The need for constant vigilance aside, there are plenty of playing pitches and basketball courts for the sports-minded, as well as pleasant tree-lined paths for those out for a stroll.

    Perfect park for walking/cycling any time of the year, specially during summer time!…read more Sometimes I think it is not well-kept by the city council - some parts of it really deserve some attention... but the place looks lovely anyway. If you start from the Booterstown station you can have a view of Howth. There is a Martelo tower on the way to Blackrock. There's a lovely small lake with a little house in the middle. A flock of swans are always around. On summer days bring a book and enjoy yourself a little. A walk for Sandymount to Blackrock is about one hour and the view is just lovely all the way.

    Blackrock Park is a space of sloping greenery and water overlooked by the DART-line. It's home to…read morea flock of swans (nastier than they look!) and an island in the middle of its small lake. The fountain which sprouts from the lake is known as the 'Peace Fountain' and was constructed in 1986 to mark the International Year for Peace. Has to be said though - the park itself is a little on the dilapidated side. The Blackrock area boasts a number of large offices blocks so you'll often see suited ladies and gents taking a break at lunchtime and enjoying the tranquillity of the park. You can peer at them as you whizz by next time on the DART. History buffs may be interested to know that Rock Road, which runs alongside the park, is said to be one of the oldest roads in the country. Apparently it was part of the ancient Slighe Chualann which was constructed by a King's order several centuries before St. Patrick!

    Hellooooooo, Bushy Park!!…read more I really enjoy weekday runs here. On the weekends I like to get out of the city and go on longer runs or hikes, but hBonestly Bushy Park is great 7 days a week. There are all types of people attracted to the park: Families Solo runners/joggers/walkers Group runners/joggers/walkers Triathalon groups Bootcamps Youth lounging on the lawns Skaters/boarders/bikers Cyclists People who want fresh air There is a little bit of Bushy Park to go around for everyone! I like to run through the path with the creek and water, but also do interval training around the stairs and grassy hills. There is alot to be said about a park that's free that can provide exercise worthy of a gym! When I go for a run in the morning I find the the fellow park enthusiasts to be friendly, regulars, and welcoming. We have a common bond of getting up early and taking to the fresh air :) In the afternoon and evenings the park can be easier, and while still very friendly and welcoming, people are more in their own zone and we just make room and share space. The sunnier the day the busier!

    Oh how I love Bushy Park! I am here every morning come rain or shine between 8 and 11am when I am…read moreallowed to have my dog off the leash! This park is great and offers a host of different areas. The woods is my favourite part, especially the ruinous shell house and the big over grown roots which i scramble up and down. Keep an eye out for badger and squirrel sets that are dotted around the woods too. The stake park was awesome but now there are no skaters only BMX users! Damn them for getting rid of the BMX park in Marley Park. But a few of use skaters can find some lips and rims free usually the hour before parks close when the BMX bandits go home to finish their homework. The stepping stones are great craic in the summer and a great place to picnic and cool off in the not so dirty water. But on of the best things to do at the river is to wait real still and keep your eyes out for the herons and kingfishers that can be spotted feeding off the minnows in the water. Total Bill Oddie experience.
