Dog-friendly venues in Alstonville

Alstonville has plenty of parks for dog walks, the mainstay of its dog-friendly options in the Northern Rivers. Ballina Shire Council's permissive policy means dogs are welcome on-leash at most parks unless signed otherwise. That makes it one of the stronger spots for dog-friendly parks in the Northern Rivers.

In Alstonville, dog-friendly options include Alabaster Park, Apex Park, and Bulwinkle Park.
