Pet policy
Reported walking route: A pleasant loop around a large suburban park with open green spaces and playgrounds.. Confirm leash rules with council signage on site.
Annandale Central Park is a dog walk in Annandale, QLD, where Central Park in Townsville offers views of Ross Creek, the city, and the Queensland Country Bank Stadium, with gazebos, shelters, picnic facilities, and walking tracks.
The walk
Underfoot it is paved and unpaved walking tracks.
Lead rules
Townsville City 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 Annandale for an on-lead stroll of this kind, particularly through the warmer months.
Worth knowing
There is enough dog-friendly hospitality around Annandale to turn the walk into an outing; the suburb guide sorts out the options. Annandale Gardens Walk is the other local walk worth comparing.
