Lawson Dog Offleash Recreation Area park in Lawson

Lawson Dog Offleash Recreation Area

Park•Lawson

Confirmed

Park•Lawson

Lawson Fenced Dog Park is a large, fully enclosed space that was formerly a golf course, giving it a much bigger footprint than most fenced parks. The scale makes a noticeable difference, with plenty of room for dogs to roam and explore.

South Lawson Parklands

Park•Lawson

Confirmed

Park•Lawson

South Lawson Parklands is home to one of the few dog-friendly bushwalks in the Blue Mountains — a 3km loop passing four waterfalls (Adelina, Federal, Cataract, and Junction Falls) through temperate rainforest. Dogs must be on-leash on the circuit, but the scenery makes up for it. The track can be muddy and has some steep sections, so sturdy shoes are essential. On warmer days, there are shallow creek pools where dogs can splash and cool off between falls. The trailhead connects to the adjacent South Lawson Dog Park if your dog still has energy for an off-leash run afterwards.

Whitton Park park in Glenbrook

Whitton Park

Park•Glenbrook

Confirmed

Park•Glenbrook

Whitton Park is a small, fully fenced off-leash area in Glenbrook with established shade trees and seating. It has a single entry gate, waste bags, a bin, and a bubbler — though the area around the bubbler can pool with water after use. The size suits smaller or calmer dogs better than high-energy breeds that need more room to run. A couple of cafes are within walking distance.
