Dog-friendly St Ives

St Ives Showground — Expansive open spaces, equestrian facilities, and bushland fringes, often with other dogs and their owners enjoying the area. Lead-on throughout unless council signage says otherwise. Benches and shade appear often enough for a slow dog.

Pymble to St Ives via Comenarra Parkway — A paved path running alongside Comenarra Parkway, offering a suburban walk with some bushland views and connections to other local streets. Lead-on throughout unless council signage says otherwise. Benches and shade appear often enough for a slow dog.

Dalrymple-Hay Nature Reserve — While the reserve is off-limits for dogs, the adjacent fire trails provide bushwalking opportunities with native flora and fauna (from a distance). Lead-on throughout unless council signage says otherwise. A coffee stop is never far on the way back.
