The '''Berowra Valley Regional Park''' is in the [[Hornsby Shire]] in [[Sydney]], [[Australia]]. Notable features include the Thornleigh Zig Zag Railway, an historic quarry and a bridge spanning Tunks Creek at [[Galston Gorge]]. There are a large amount of walks to do in the park. The longest of these include the Benowie Track (part of the [[Great North Walk]]), which runs the length of the park. Other walks include the Calicoma walk in Cherrybrook, the Blue Gum Walk at Hornsby, plus many others. Access points to the park can be found at [[Pennant Hills, New South Wales | Pennant Hills]], [[Cherrybrook, New South Wales | Cherrybrook]], [[Dural, New South Wales | Dural]], [[Westleigh, New South Wales|Westleigh]], [[Thornleigh, New South Wales | Thornleigh]], [[Hornsby, New South Wales | Hornsby]], [[Hornsby Heights, New South Wales | Hornsby Heights]], [[Galston, New South Wales | Galston]], [[MtMount Colah, New South Wales | Mount Colah]], [[MtMount Kuring-gai, New South Wales | Mount Kuring-gai]] and [[Berowra, New South Wales|Berowra]].
Camping is available at Crosslands plus other small campsite (no facilities) along the Benowie Track. The park follows the deep valley carved out by the Berowra Creek.
