Dog friendly walk in Mornington Penisula that has it all. A wooden boardwalk along the peaceful Balcombe creek, leash free areas, a gorgeous golden sandy beach, boutique Mount Martha shops and cafes and of course, lots of friendly locals!

This is a favourite walk of locals and tourists alike (and is especially dog friendly!).

Follow the boardwalk and take in the peaceful vibes and sounds of the nature. Visit the Citation Reserve Dog Park before making your way to the dog friendly Hawker Beach

Cross the road to the Mount Martha Shops and enjoy browsing the boutique shops and quaint cafes this beautiful area has to offer (as well as another playground!). As you make your way back the way you came, there is an option to follow another section of the boardwalk on the opposite side of the creek, making a loop.
