Tania Park is an urban park located at 2 Bareena Drive, Balgowlah Heights, a suburb of Sydney, New South Wales, Australia.
Administered by the Northern Beaches Council, the park functions as a suburban park containing large dog exercise areas, sporting facilities and play equipment.[1][2] The park is adjacent to Dobroyd Head which offers commanding views of Sydney, Middle and North Harbours. Located on a high point, it contains the 90.3 2MWM transmitter, which can be heard across northern and eastern Sydney.
It is named after Tania Verstak, a winner of the 1962 Miss International Beauty pageant, who was brought up locally.[3][4]
