Ainslie Walk – Dog Friendly Walk in Ainslie ACT
The Ainslie Walk is a scenic, dog‑friendly route that meanders through the leafy streets and open spaces of one of Canberra’s oldest suburbs. Starting and finishing at the Ainslie shops on Edgar Street, this approximately 4 km loop takes around 60 minutes to complete at a leisurely pace. The walk offers a mix of heritage‑listed cottages, tree‑lined avenues, and green spaces, with a large off‑leash oval near the beginning for dogs to run and play.
The route passes through several small parks, including Wakefield Gardens and Corroboree Park, before entering a short section of the Mount Ainslie Nature Reserve where dogs must remain on‑leash. Along the way, you’ll enjoy glimpses of Black Mountain and the city, as well as bushland views of Mount Ainslie. Facilities such as public toilets, waste bins, and a dog‑friendly café/pub at the starting point make it a convenient and enjoyable outing for both dogs and their owners.
Key features:
– Approx. 4 km loop, allow about 60 minutes
– Large off‑leash oval (Majura Oval) near the start of the walk
