Dogs must remain on leash at all times when in public (including bushland) except in designated off-leash areas. Dogs are prohibited within 10 metres of children's play areas, within 10 metres of food preparation/consumption areas, from recreation areas during organised games, from bushland/wetlands/mangroves, school grounds, and childcare centres.

An appealing shaded walk beside Stringybark creek. Thanks to all the bush regeneration workers who removed so many weeds and encouraged Australian native plants. There's a huge number of brush turkeys here. Many of the native plants would not have been seen here 250 years ago. Such as the Straw tree fern, Australian Red Cedar, Plum Pine and Magenta Cherry.
We check council regulations, official sources, and community reviews to verify dog access at every venue. Access may change — always check on-site signage. Something wrong or missing? Submit feedback. How it works.
