Scarborough Off Leash Dog Park
Scarborough Off Leash Dog Park is a straightforward, fenced space with well-kept grass and a generally quiet atmosphere. It's not the flashiest park, but the open layout and low foot traffic make it a relaxed option for dogs that prefer a calmer environment. Be prepared — it can get wet and muddy after rain, which dogs tend to enjoy more than their owners. Drinking water and waste bags are available.

What people say
Great off-leash dog park with lots of balls around for them to play with. Almost certain to find a dog there when you go so they can play together. Chairs and a compost garden complete the scene. Recommended!
Nice area to bring your dogs here, but there are just too many puddles after the rains. The area is huge with fences, and there are 5-6 plastic chairs for you to sit down and wait while your dogs are having fun
Big open space. Usually quiet. Warning: it can get wet. Let your dog off the leash and it’ll probably get muddy. The dogs will love it. You probably not so much. But you know what - it’s not always about you
An open pen in the middle of a grassed reserve. Safe entry space, bags & bin suppled & 1 water bubbler. Boggy, lacking drainage, shelter, lights, or nearby loos. Handy space but council could do better for furry family members 🫤
