Marrickville Park

Located in Sydney’s Inner West, Marrickville Park in Marrickville features a large off-leash dog exercise area.

The grounds are unfenced and shared with sporting fields, providing plenty of open space for local dogs to run and play.

The off-leash space is grassy and expansive, with shaded trees and seating scattered around the edges. Its size makes it suitable for active dogs to stretch out, while paths and surrounding open areas provide variety for walking.

Because the area is unfenced and bordered by nearby roads, strong recall is important. The grass is maintained for sports use and can become muddy after rain, and owners should bring water as dog-specific facilities are limited.

The park is close to Marrickville shops and cafés, and sits within a lively community precinct, making it convenient for combining dog outings with errands or local visits.

Marrickville Park is best suited to energetic, social dogs that thrive in large community spaces and open fields.

Marrickville Park is managed by the Inner West Council.
