Best dog-friendly bushwalks in Brisbane

With winter in the rear-view mirror, now's the time to get out and about with your four-legged friend/s and explore the city's bushwalks.

Walk through Hemmant Quarry Reserve in Brisbane's east to take a moment away from the hustle and bustle.

Seven Hills Bushland boast scenic views, creeks and a spectacular collection of wildflowers, making for a great day out.

Soak up the sun as you explore the shorebird hotspot, Tinchi Tamba Wetlands Reserve in Bald Hills.

Offering one of the most iconic views in the city, Mt Coot-tha Reserve also has some of the best walking trails in Brisbane.

To protect local fauna and flora, keep dogs on a leash when visiting a bushland reserve and pick up after them.

Dogs over the age of three months must be registered with Brisbane City Council, with fees supporting key services that keep you and your dog safe when out and about.

Did you know that Council has more than 160 dog off-leash areas to exercise your pet across Brisbane?
