Yarralumla Dog Park to Warrina Inlet

Yarralumla to Warrina Inlet is a relaxing return walk starting from Weston Park Road, Yarralumla. This walk is pet friendly, so you can bring your furry friend along for the adventure. The path is flat and smooth, with a natural landscape that is stunning in autumn. Near the start, you can explore the historical Westbourne Woods and the dog swimming beach at Orana Bay (off Brown Street). Another highlight of the journey is the Yarralumla Dog Park, a fenced-off dog park that provides lovely views of the golf course as your dog enjoys the off-leash running and gunning. Also, you can spot some kangaroos if you're lucky. There are benches in the park as well. There are also multiple dog-friendly cafes minutes away, so you can enjoy a bite to eat before or after your walk. Let us begin by acknowledging the Traditional Custodians of the land on which we travel today, and pay our respects to their Elders past and present.
