Figtree Oval
Figtree Oval has a fenced off-leash area with a creek running alongside where dogs can paddle. There's drinking water, waste bags, and bins provided. A playground sits nearby. Locals note that the ground can get soggy after heavy rain, but in dry conditions it's a pleasant spot.

What people say
Off leash dogpark with paddling Creek and lots of other dogs to play with. Not fenced so only suitable for dogs with good recall. Toilets available. Plenty of parking at the oval & at the back of Figtree Bowling club. Large playground too
Love this dog park. Our two doggies love it to. People are friendly and our dogs get along with the other dogs quite well. They also go for a dip in the creek. A bin is strategically placed for poo bags which MOST people use. Also a water tap with a big bowl for a much needed drink after all that fun
Good for jogs, walks and running. Oval has an outdoor gym for kids and adults. Heaps of parking space. Fact - This is oval where Adam Gilchrist scored his first century.
Spacious green grassed area. Nice trickling stream where the dogs can go for a paddle or drink. However the area is not fenced off. Sat nav will take you to shopping centre car park. You need to take street into Figtree Community Hall, park then walk around football field. Good play equipment for kids back near car park.
