Ashridge Road Park Fenced Dog Park

A fully fenced off-leash dog park on Monier Road in Darra, backing onto a quiet strip of bushland in Brisbane's western suburbs. The draw is a secure perimeter with a mix of open grass and shade trees, so you can let the dog run without watching the road.

The rules. Dogs run free inside the fenced enclosure but must be leashed on the way in and out and anywhere in the surrounding parkland. Keep your dog in sight and under voice control, and pick up after them using the bins on site. Standard Brisbane City Council off-leash conditions apply.

What's there. Shaded seating for owners, on-site bins, and general water access. The entrance is wheelchair accessible, and a walking trail runs alongside the park if you want to add a stroll before or after.

Getting there. The park sits at 148 Monier Road, with the fenced area often reached near Chipley Street. On-street parking is usually easy on the surrounding streets. Darra Station is roughly a 1.5 km walk, around 15 to 20 minutes on foot.

When to go. Early mornings and late afternoons are the social peak. For a nervous or reactive dog, mid-morning through early afternoon on a weekday is much quieter. Cooler months from autumn into winter are the most comfortable for a longer session.
