Strickland Arboretum is a dog-friendly on-leash walking trail through a landscaped, shaded setting. The trail is short but pleasant, with water crossings that can get muddy. There's drinking water available, and the tree coverage keeps it cool even on warm days. It's a quiet, low-key spot that works well for a calm on-leash walk rather than an energetic outing.

Walked the Arboretum trail in search of birds. It's really pretty and was shady and cool on a hot day, but not many birds in view, perhaps because there were lots of loud dog owners with dogs off lead (allowed here). So a nice place for families and pets but not great birding (i started at 9.00 and likely quieter earlier than than that). But also lots of mozzie, so wear repellent!

Beautiful and quiet walk, surrounded by an abundance of trees and wildlife. You will cross a few small streams of water, and the ground does remain soggy most of the year, so don't wear your good shoes. Dogs allowed on leash. It's a easy walk, but thoroughly enjoyable.

Great short walk, super muddy, can take your puppies and kids, water crossing, super easy walk

If you walk ahead another 10 min, there’s a gorgeous sparkling lake on the right hand side (blue part on the map) it’s a massive grassy field you walk through before you can see it.
