Off-Leash Dog Area at Parraweena Reserve
Parraweena Reserve has an off-leash dog area that is unfenced and open from 4pm to 7pm every afternoon. Outside those hours the reserve is open for other recreational activities. Under a Council resolution of 23 May 2023, the timed off-leash activity is proposed to continue permanently between 4pm and 7pm daily. The off-leash area was closed while the remediation works were underway, so dog owners should check current access before heading out.
