Signal Hill Reserve

Be the first to share a photo of this spot.

Signal Hill Reserve is a small reserve in Vaucluse where dogs are allowed off-leash at all times. It is a quiet, low-key spot for a run, with parking on hand and a relaxed local feel. There are few facilities, so it suits a quick off-leash visit rather than a long stay. A handy off-leash pocket close to home.

There is a stunning view, of course. Beautiful weather draws you to a place like this. Crowds on the hill were minimal, with groups enjoying the walk along the coast line. Parking near the lighthouse was easy. It was an enjoyable Sunday afternoon.

BREATHTAKING! Beautiful lookout and great spot to relax to take in the beauty! The views here are breathtaking (photo moments) You feel like your at the end of the world! Make sure you get down here and have a look you won't regret it at all! It has a dark past due to the cliffs taking life's and there memories live on with the locks attached to the fence. RESPECT!
