Thornleigh Brickpit

Located in Sydney’s Upper North Shore, Thornleigh Brickpit in Thornleigh offers a fully fenced off-leash dog park that sits within a large recreational precinct. The area is secure and open, with enough space for dogs to run and socialise while owners relax nearby. Its setting alongside sports facilities gives it a lively, community feel.

The dog park is known for its practical layout with open grassed areas, shaded trees, and seating for owners. There is parking close by, and walking paths around the wider reserve make it easy to extend outings. The fencing provides peace of mind, especially for younger or less-trained dogs.

Owners should note that while the park is securely fenced, it can become busy during weekends and evenings. The ground may get worn or muddy after rain, and supervising dogs closely is recommended in peak times.

The surrounding precinct includes sports courts, a skate park, and walking tracks, with cafés and shops in Thornleigh a short drive away. The park connects easily to other local green spaces for longer walks.

Thornleigh Brickpit suits social, energetic dogs that thrive in busier community settings as well as puppies and smaller dogs needing a safe, fenced area.

Thornleigh Brickpit is managed by Hornsby Shire Council.
