Friars Field is an off-leash area in Pymble available at all times when dogs are accompanied. The space is large but unfenced, so recall is important. There's drinking water and toilets. It's adjacent to bushland, which adds variety to the walk.

Dog rules

Designated off-leash dog exercise area. Dogs permitted off-leash at all times when accompanied by a competent person. Dogs must be under effective control without a leash. Maximum 4 dogs per person. Dogs must be on leash when leaving the off-leash area. Keep dogs 10 metres away from playgrounds and food areas. Dog owners must remove all dog faeces — $275 fine applies.

Huge park with limited off leash times. From 8 am till 5 pm dogs must be on leash. Is a huge esplanade but with just 1 water fountain. Wouldn’t call it a dog park when dogs can only be there for particular times.

A nice place to being dogs off leash. The are is semi-enclosed and has water and poo bags provided.

Poorly maintained, no public toilets. If your kids get assigned a soccer here, I feel bad for them.

This is a lovely small park. Especially nice space to allow dogs off leash during off leash time. The massive down site to this park that it is not fully fenced. It would take very little for the council to fence the small gaps and then this would be a much safer more useful space.

Need to be an off lease park, currently off lease before 8am, open to the road at the top of the hill.
