Barrenjoey Peninsula | 24h Dog Park in Yarralumla
THE EXPERIENCE
Barrenjoey Peninsula on Lake Burley Griffin boasts mature stands of oaks, poplars and other exotic shady trees as well as vast expanses of grassland. The trees are so lovely that they’ve been incorporated into the National Arboretum. There are two good spots along the shore shallow enough for dogs to paddle if they aren’t keen on full immersion. The furthest spot provides the best access for less confident dogs and a perfect view of the Governor-General’s residence on the other side of the lake. It’s well worth exploring the dirt tracks that wander along the shore, under the shady trees and through the grassland. The peninsula is well-defined by wire fencing on each side so you can’t wander too far off track.

Large enough park for a decent walk. Although I haven’t seen one yet, I’m always on the lookout for snakes as the grass is quite long. Lots of parking, but no bins or water.
Being able to have a swim is a huge bonus
