Dogs welcome — rules apply•Dog rules

Updated 24 July 2026

Hartley Historic Site is a dog-friendly park where dogs are welcome on lead. You'll find shade, parking, and toilets nearby, while The Postmistress Cafe and Store is just a short walk away for an easy post-walk coffee. Some conditions apply, so it's worth checking the rules before you visit.

Dog rules

Dogs welcome on-leash at Hartley Historic Village, including the Post Mistress café and the two walking tracks. Not permitted inside the heritage buildings. (Confirmed with NPWS local office.)

Hartley Historic Site is dog friendly on leash and a few venues worth checking out; Kew-Y-Ahn Bells Rock Walking Track and Rowsons River walk are a must, and the Postmistress cafe is dog friendly outside. Lovely day trip while soaking in some history.
