Rouge Park
Today the landfill is now part of Rouge Park and a Rouge Valley visitor centre is located at the foot of the trail leading into the former landfill from Zoo Road. Grass and dirt trails now cover the landfill with some wooded areas.
Hikers can access the landfill, but a gate can be locked to close access to the site.

Famous quotes containing the words rouge and/or park:
“With the old kindness, the old distinguished grace,
She lies, her lovely piteous head amid dull red hair
Propped upon pillows, rouge on the pallor of her face.
She would not have us sad because she is lying there,
And when she meets our gaze her eyes are laughter-lit,
Her speech a wicked tale that we may vie with her....”
—William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
“Mrs. Mirvan says we are not to walk in [St. James’s] Park again next Sunday ... because there is better company in Kensington Gardens; but really, if you had seen how every body was dressed, you would not think that possible.”
—Frances Burney (1752–1840)
