Allambie Heights Oval is a dog walk in Allambie Heights, NSW, where the route features large grassed playing field, basketball court, playground nestled in natural bush setting, and walking path around the oval.

The walk

Underfoot it is grass, paved, rubber.

Lead rules

Northern Beaches Council manages the route. Leash rules change along the way: some sections are lead-on, others are signed for off-lead play. The signage at each section is the authority, so treat the first visit as a scouting run and let the signs set the pace.

Carry water for the dog: drinking points along walks like this are rarely signed, so plan as if there are none. Early morning and dusk are the comfortable windows in Allambie Heights for an on-lead stroll of this kind, particularly through the warmer months.

Worth knowing
