Belmore Park

Dogs welcome — rules applyDog rules

Updated 13 July 2026

Belmore Park is a large open park beside Central Station in Haymarket, a handy patch of green in the heart of the city. Dogs are welcome on-leash — it is not one of the City of Sydney's designated off-leash parks — and kept clear of the playground and sports courts. It is an easy spot for a walk between the surrounding streets. A central, convenient on-leash green.

Dog rules

Dogs are welcome in this park but must be kept on a leash at all times. Off-leash exercise is only permitted in the City of Sydney's 50 designated off-leash parks — this is not one of them. Dogs are prohibited from playgrounds, sports courts, and enclosed sports ovals. Please pick up after your dog and use bins where provided.

Belmore Park in Goulburn, NSW, is a beautiful park . It's a peaceful spot to relax(There are some Falun Dafa practitioners practising peacefully in the afternoon).It is located in the city center, it's close to cafes ,shops ,and also Central Station.

Relaxing place, after walking for hours in the city, this place made me feel relax. What a beautiful view, very lucky to be in this place. Lots of trees, birds everywhere, nice breeze, lots of bench, and can even do picnics here.

This is a fairly small park outside Central Station. It has a beautiful gazebo. There are no jogging tracks, just a few walkways. Not suitable for exercising or picnic. Plenty of benches in the park, but there were a few shady people around. Homeless people were also around. Maybe it's not that safe after dark. Found a few people relaxing on the lawns also. Got bitten by mosquitoes and saw rats scurrying around. Can be better maintained.
