Hornsby Park continues to take shape

Exciting changes are taking shape at Hornsby Park as we prepare to open the first precinct of this brand new space for the community.

Finishing Touches at the Crusher Plant Precinct

We’re putting the final touches on the area surrounding the historic Crusher Plant building, featuring the spectacular Southern Lookout. This space will soon provide visitors with breathtaking views across the former quarry.

Current works include improvements along Quarry Road to establish a welcoming arrival plaza for visitors.

Quarry Loop Underway

Construction has commenced on the Quarry Loop – a shared path encircling the rim of the quarry. This picturesque route, with some steep inclines, is designed for walking, running, cycling and dog walking, offering scenic views of the quarry lake, the surrounding forests and the volcanic diatreme.

The Quarry Loop is proudly supported by funding from a NSW Government Metropolitan Greenspace Grant. 

Old Mans Valley

Work on the Old Mans Valley Field of Play will begin in early 2026. Co-funded through a Thriving Suburbs Grant from the Australian Government, this project will deliver a recreational playing field, bike pump track, new picnic facilities and amenities.

What’s Next

We anticipate the first stages of Hornsby Park will open to the public in mid-2026, with Old Mans Valley to follow in the years to come – and we can’t wait to welcome you to Sydney’s breathtaking bush park.
