Colmslie Recreation Reserve Dog Park

This fenced reserve spans more than 2 hectares, with grassy fields, agility stations, and a sandy river edge for cooling swims. The layout flows from open grass into a sloping sandy area and onto the river bank. Facilities include agility gear, blue water taps, seating, shaded spots, waste bins, and a small sandy ‘beach’ area. Everything is well maintained. This park attracts water-loving dogs, local families, and training groups. Weekends buzz with social energy; weekday evenings see more relaxed, routine visitors. Picture a pup bounding into the shallow river for a splash, then racing back across grass to an agility ramp while you watch under a shady tree. Community chat flows cleverly as dogs tire. In Brisbane’s hot months, the river is a lifesaver—just choose early mornings or late afternoons. Winter brings cooler water, but mid-day remains chilly enough for cautious splashes.
