Safe & Secure: The Best Fenced Parks
For total peace of mind, nothing beats a fully fenced park. These are the top secure spots in Dubbo and Wellington.

1. Wheelers Lane Fenced Dog Park
This is the best choice for active dogs. The extensive agility course with hoops, ramps, and weave poles provides excellent mental and physical stimulation. It’s secure, fun, and the perfect place to practice training or just have a blast.
2. Apex Park (Wellington)
The new park in Wellington is a game changer. It offers separate, secure areas for small and large dogs, giving owners of smaller breeds total confidence. It is a modern, safe, and fantastic community asset for locals and travellers.


3. South Dubbo Fenced Dog Park
A busy and friendly local hub with great shade and some agility gear. It’s a reliable spot for a social outing, just be sure to bring your own water as the on-site trough can sometimes be unreliable.
4. Delroy Parklands (West Dubbo)
This is the main secure spot for West Dubbo residents. Its prime location right next to the Delroy Park Shopping Centre makes it incredibly convenient for a quick run while you are out doing errands.

Swim & Splash: River Access

Devil’s Hole Reserve
This is Dubbo’s unofficial dog beach. Located right on the Macquarie River, this unfenced reserve is the premier spot to cool off on a hot day. With picnic facilities, toilets, and huge shade trees, it’s perfect for a family day out.
Insider Tip: Always check for Blue-Green Algae alerts on the council website before letting your dog swim, especially in late summer. The river can also have currents, so only let confident swimmers off the leash near the water.
The Highway Pitstop (Geurie)
Wise Park, Geurie
For anyone travelling on the Mitchell Highway, Wise Park is the perfect rest stop. This unfenced park offers toilets, bins, water, and grass. It is an essential and convenient spot to give your dog a much needed break on a long journey.
