Dog exercise map
Fully fenced off-leash dog exercise areas:

- Ian Galloway Park in Karori / Northland – this area is lit from dusk until 8pm
- Taylor Park, Tawa (access through Redwood Station car park)

Leashed dogs are welcome in many popular gardens, most of the Wellington Town Belt and on city streets.
Dog owners are welcome to walk through the central city with their dogs on-leash at all times of the day and throughout the year.
Dogs across the city are not allowed to be left unattended in any public place.
Your responsibilities
When exercising dog off-leash, you must maintain control over your dog at all times.
Be alert and make sure that your dog isn't behaving aggressively towards other dogs or people.
You are responsible for cleaning up after your pet.
