Pet-friendly parks near Fairfield
Looking for a great place to get outdoors with your four-legged friend in Fairfield? You're in luck. This leafy suburb in Melbourne’s inner north is surrounded by some of the city’s best pet-friendly parks.
Whether your pup loves an off-leash run, a quiet sniff along the riverbank, or meeting other furry companions, Fairfield has plenty to offer.
Here are some local favourites for dog-friendly adventures:
- Yarra Bend Park – Fairfield is home to this sprawling and diverse parkland, offering scenic trails, open spaces, and several designated off-leash areas for dogs to roam freely. It's perfect for long walks and weekend outings.
- Darebin Parklands – Just a stone’s throw away, this beautiful nature reserve features wide-open spaces and off-leash zones, ideal for a sniff, run and play. Learn more here.
- All Nations Park – Located nearby in Northcote, this popular park includes large grassy areas and a dedicated off-leash section for dogs to stretch their legs and socialise. Find out more here.
Wherever you go, remember to check local signage for off-leash boundaries and always clean up after your dog to help keep these parks welcoming for everyone.

All pets in Fairfield must be registered with either Darebin City or Yarra City Council. Registration helps reunite lost pets with their owners and contributes to local animal services and facilities.
