Don Ritchie Grove is a small local reserve in Vaucluse with a quiet, neighbourhood feel. Dogs are welcome on-leash, kept clear of playgrounds and food areas, and it makes an easy spot for a short walk. It is a simple pocket of green close to home rather than a destination park. A low-key on-leash reserve in the area.
Dog rules
Dogs must be kept on a lead at all times when in public unless in a sign-posted off-leash area. Dogs are prohibited within 10 metres of children's play areas, within 10 metres of food preparation/consumption areas (except outdoor dining), from school grounds and childcare centres. Dog owners must clean up after their dogs. Source: Woollahra Municipal Council – Walking Your Dog (woollahra.nsw.gov.au/Services/Animals-and-Pets/Walking-Your-Dog)
