Vanardi Green

Located in Sydney’s Inner West, Vanardi Green in Newtown is a small off-leash dog exercise area set within a residential pocket near the railway line.

The park is unfenced and grassy, with a casual atmosphere that makes it a convenient stop for local dog owners.

The off-leash space includes open turf with some shaded trees and seating. Its compact layout is better suited to short visits and play sessions rather than extended runs.

Because the area is unfenced and bordered by nearby roads and train lines, strong recall is essential. Facilities are limited, so owners should bring their own water and bags.

The reserve is close to Newtown’s cafés, shops, and the lively King Street strip, making it easy to combine a dog visit with a local outing.

Vanardi Green is best suited to smaller or calmer dogs that enjoy neighbourhood spaces and shorter exercise sessions.

Vanardi Green is managed by the Inner West Council.
