Iluma Dog Park

Iluma Dog Park is a small, open grassed exercise space inside the Iluma housing estate in Bennett Springs, a few minutes off Lord Street near the Reid Highway interchange. It is an unfenced community space rather than a dedicated off-leash run, so treat it as a place to stretch legs on a lead, not a fenced dog park.

The rules. There is no council listing confirming this patch as a designated off-leash area, so City of Swan's standard rule applies: dogs must be leashed unless you are in a signed off-leash zone. Owners must carry a lead and remove waste immediately, and anyone keeping three or more dogs needs a City of Swan permit.

What's there. Open lawn and landscaped paths shared with the wider estate, plus nearby benches. There are no on-site toilets and no fencing, so it suits a short on-lead walk or a sniff around rather than a proper off-leash session.

Nearby with the dogs. For genuine off-leash time, Whiteman Park's fenced dog park and Annies Landing in Ellenbrook are both a short drive away. For a coffee stop after your walk, Muzz Buzz in Malaga and Beechboro, Young Mugs Cafe in Ballajura, and Roll Call Cafe in Malaga are all nearby.

When to go. Early morning or late afternoon keeps things quiet, since the estate's own park areas get busy with families after school and on weekend afternoons. Good for a quick on-lead stretch between errands, not a destination run.
