An Extraordinary Council Meeting will be held on Tuesday 10 June 2025 in the Council Chambers, Level 1A, 1 Pope Street, Ryde and online commencing at 6.00pm.
An off leash area is a designated public area in which dog owners can exercise dogs without a leash. These are the only areas in the City of Ryde where dogs are permitted to run free without a lead.
It is recognised that dogs benefit greatly from a chance to run freely and socialise with other dogs as it reduces boredom, pent-up energy, barking and other nuisance behaviour.
See maps for off-leash areas within each park.
To protect our local native wildlife, certain areas within City of Ryde have been declared Wildlife Protection Areas. These areas are Field of Mars Reserve, Kittys Creek corridor and Terrys Creek corridor. No dogs are allowed in Field of Mars Reserve. At Kittys Creek and Terrys Creek, dogs must be on leash along established tracks.
