Great place to go for a walk or a picnic. There is no entrance fee and there is some times a market on a weekend morning. The park also has a fence all the way around around which makes it feel a great deal safer than some others in the area. It is also well maintained, with the grass seemingly being cut regularly and no litter to be found which is refreshing. The views of table mountain are fantastic and from some angles you can see all the way to the sea.

This is a fenced and neat park where the kids can enjoy the playground and doggies can run around on nice green lawns off the leash! You have beautiful mountain views and you're pretty much alone as there are only very few people around. This park is probably best known to the local residents there and not as crowded as De Waal Park. Every Saturday from 8am to 2pm, there is the Mountain Market where the community sells authentic food, organic fruits and vegetables and some clothing and accessories. A great little market to go to on a Saturday morning with good vibes, friendly people and yummy food. Just make sure to bring along a picnic blanket or chairs. There are no tables or seating options at the park itself and it also doesn't have any public toilets.

Lovely park with a playground for children and a food caravan with good coffee. Ample space to walk your dogs.

An oasis now that it has been cleaned up. Thanks to the council for creating this beautiful space!

Safe and gated park for all dogs , kids, and families to enjoy. They have Bliss Cafe food truck there for coffee and pastries everyday of the week. River running through the park and a board walk to enjoy.

Fantastic new Saturday market. Wonderful atmosphere under the trees. Plenty of grass to sit on or you can bring a picnic blanket. Quality food vendors with lots of fresh fruit and veggies on sale. The highlights for me were Nourishd Cafe fresh juices and True Nature plant based and vegan dahls and soups. Simply delicious and super healthy. There were great musicians playing too. Very chilled market. Amazing views of Table Mountain. Probably the most naturally picturesque market in Cape Town. Due to the year end festivities, the next marked is only on 15 January 2022.

Lovely park with its own foodie truck. Great place to bring your 4-footed children

Beautiful scenery right at the foot of table mountain. Dog and kid friendly, very clean park

Van Riebeeck Park is a pretty park, there are however a number of homeless people living in the park. A lot of them are friendly but there are a few who have been aggressive. The park and the attached sports field are great places for dog walks and training sessions.

Beautiful views of Table Mountain, Lions Head and looking the other way the City Bowl. There is an easy boardwalk past the old Cape Washhouses and also a stream running down. A gentle walk into thr Deer Park reserve.

Safe for humans and dogs. Park is being used much more since the fence was erected.

Stunning sports field with views of the mountain and the sea.

Very nicely maintained park, easy walk, will definitely go back

Rubbish and litter all along the river. Unsafe environment.

A nice view to the Cape Town

Nice, clean and well looked after park. Took my kids there for some fun and they enjoyed it. Great place also to take your dogs.

Wow what a truly special park. A new discovery for me - the park was clean and very kid and dog friendly and has the most incredible view. A must for a family picnic or a romantic stroll with or without a dog!

Lots of trees, lots of gorgeous dogs. Very mellow ravine with crabs, tadpoles. Clean family outdoor venue to enjoy a picnic. Bring along an umbrella, blankets, cushions to relax. Well kept public space.

So peaceful sitting under the trees

It's open during lockdown, although there are some characters hanging around there that made me feel unsafe. Some seem pretty harmless because it simply where they live, but others seem to have set up basecamp there for crime in the area during lockdown taking advantage of the situation, so just be alert.

A well kept park which has recently had a fence erected around it. Swings and jungle gyms for the kids and it has a small river running through the one side of it.

The weekly Saturday market is amazing all the stalls are so beautiful and all the traders are so friendly also check out cedarlove and try some of there products thank me later

Lovely suburban park with market on Saturdays and occasional food truck in the week

Good for peace of mind, Food for the soul👌

Good park for playing, gym also the dogs can run around.

Quiet relaxed atmosphere

Nice Place to go to just to clear your head or to let the Kids Run free with an amazing backdrop of Table Mountain

Amazing place to take the family. Chill in the park on Saturday, enjoy the market, live music and bring the dog to play as well.

Good food and service for affordable price.

I sat with my feet in river and wondered how the slaves hiding out in the mountains hundreds of years ago might have used it for drinking, washing and cooking It's a breathtaking calm place

The oldest Olive Trees in the Country, Slaveroute relics and surrounded by an amphitheater of the mountain that rises out of the Sea. The gateway to Table Mountain.

Visited the Saturday natural Flea Market. Some excellent produce on sale. Loved the atmosphere, milling around the stalls, enjoying the people, relaxing on the grass.

Convenient but too many vagrants sleeping on the far side of the stream. I didn't feel unsafe but uncomfortable.

Every Thursday morning, 8 - 12 noon, find some awesome locally grown vegetables (plastic waste free as well!!) being sold in aid of the Ladles of Love NPO. 😍

Peaceful

To many people living in the park.not a good place to walk in. People living in the parks also uses the streams to wash in.

Meet some homeless guys over there. They were friendly but... You know what I mean.

Totally stunning - words cannot express !!

Peaceful

Very quite tranquil place

Wonderful

So much potential but litter and vagrants everywhere
