Annandale Gardens Walk is a dog walk in Annandale, QLD, where you can see variety of palms, other botanic gardens, and potentially views of the Ross River.
The walk
Underfoot it is paved paths, boardwalks, and some natural trails.
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 Central Park is the other local walk worth comparing.
