Joslin Reserve

Joslin Reserve fills the block between Third and Fourth Avenues in Joslin, with paved paths, shady lawns and a busy playground for a short on-lead walk.

Lead rules

The City of Norwood Payneham & St Peters does not list Joslin Reserve as an off-leash park, so dogs stay on lead. Dogs are also kept out of the playground area.

The walk

Concrete paths loop the reserve past tennis courts, a basketball ring and wide lawns. It is a short stroll, so combine a few laps or add the nearby streets.

Big trees and shade structures keep it cool, and there are toilets, seating and bins. Street parking surrounds the park.

For a bigger walk, try St Peters Billabong, or visit Hannaford Reserve nearby.

Flat, paved and shady, it suits older dogs and hot days.
