Hull Road Drainage Reserve Dog Off Leash Area

The Hull Road Drainage Reserve is an open, sloping off-leash reserve on Hull Road in Mooroolbark, dotted with trees and good for dogs that like a run on gently hilly ground. It is unfenced, so recall is the deciding factor here.

The rules. Under Yarra Ranges Council rules, dogs may be off-leash within the reserve but must stay under effective voice control, and you must carry a lead at all times. The area is generally unfenced and sits close to Hull Road, so keep dogs with patchy recall on-lead near the boundary. Clean up after your dog.

What is there. A gravel path runs through the reserve, and scattered trees give some shade. Facilities are otherwise minimal, so bring your own water and waste bags.

Getting there. Parking is available near the corner of Edinburgh Road and Hull Road, and the reserve is easy to spot from the main road.

It is quietest through the middle of the day. Note that this reserve has seen construction activity in the past, so it is worth a quick check that access is open before you make a special trip.
