Off-leash hours
Not stated – check signage
Tempe Lands contains two fenced areas available for leash-free exercise for dogs of all sizes. NOTE: Sydney Gateway construction team will close the off-leash dog park on Smith Street Tempe near the old golf driving range. It will be replaced temporarily with a new off-leash temporary dog park near the model car racetrack on Holbeach Avenue, opposite Tempe Reserve. It will remain there until construction of Sydney Gateway is complete in late 2024. A new permanent off-leash dog park will be built near the current location at Smith Street, when construction of Sydney Gateway is complete. This is included in the Inner West Council Tempe Reserve Plan of Management and Master Plan. The final design for the temporary dog park has separate fenced areas - the western side (closest to the river) is offered for larger dogs and the eastern side (near the sporting field) is offered for smaller dogs. Tempe fenced dog off-leash area includes park furniture, water bubblers, rubbish bins and flood lights for safety at night. Council's Companion Animal Officers cannot regulate the use of the park based on dog size. Council has encouraged users to self-regulate.
