Dales Park Reserve Dog Off Leash Area

1 Washington Dr, Oakleigh South, VIC

4.4(13 reviews)

Dales Park Reserve offers a spacious and versatile environment for dog owners in Australia. The park features a designated off-leash area, as confirmed by official council signage installed in 2023. The landscape is characterized by large open grassy fields, mature eucalyptus trees providing significant natural shade, and a mix of surface types including well-maintained grass, dirt paths, and paved concrete walkways. Facilities include a dedicated shaded seating area featuring a large black shade sail over picnic tables and benches, providing a comfortable spot for owners. The reserve is integrated with other recreational facilities, including a running track and sports fields, which are separated by various fencing types such as chain-link and low post-and-rail. The overall atmosphere is open, airy, and suburban, making it ideal for both active exercise and leisurely walks. While specific dog-specific amenities like agility equipment or water stations are not explicitly captured in these views, the sheer scale of the green space and the provided seating make it a highly functional community asset.

A nice and small space with water, good for dogs with good recall only because the gate that opens to an always busy Warrigal Road can be propped opened.

I just love this place. We have been going daily for 13 years and yesterday took out beautiful sausage dog salsa for her last walk before she passed over. It holds so many memories.
