Map of Designated Dog off Leash Areas

about 6 years

Drop a pin on:

Good space: Use the Green Pin to highlight an area or park that you or your family frequently visit and is suitable to your needs, and explain why its such a great place to visit.

Improvements needed: Use the Red Pin to highlight a DoL area that is unsuitable to your needs and explain why and suggest possible improvements. 

Great 'On-leash' exercise area: Use the Pink Pin to highlight and share with fellow dog walkers a space within the Blue Mountains where you currently exercise your dog 'on-leash' and enjoy visiting.

Designated Dog off Leash area: The Orange marker represents the location of Councils DoL areas.

*Reminder: This mapping tool is used to assess how our existing Dog Off Leash areas and how well some of Councils Dog 'On-leash' areas are functioning within the community. The #dips strategy is not addressing comments around additional dog off leash sites, as previous studies have shown interest from the community around improvements to existing sites is of a higher priority to the community.
