The little suburb of Cook provides pretty walking through a range of off and on leash bush-like parks. This varied route loops up to the slopes of Mt Painter, providing sublime district and rural views north across Belconnen and east towards central Canberra, and then follows a series of shady, interconnected off leash parks. As well as the off leash parks, the large Cook Neighbourhood Oval at the end of the walk offers a safe and green off leash area, bordered by more shady trees. A shorter alternative cuts out the last on leash section and the off leash oval.
