The whole park is just under 55 hectares and has easy access to a library, sports center, sports fields and 16 km of Greenway. The off-leash portion is tucked away in the northern part of the Park.

This dog park is a small enclosure (approx. 1 ha) with lots of parking. The posted opening hours are from 6AM to 11PM. Enclosure is used year round and is very busy. The terrain is completely flat and there are 4 to 5 picnic tables enclosed. Also, to hide from the summer sun, a couple patches of trees are available. Mission Creek is right next door so your pooch can get a drink of water after that long run, it is an on-leash area only though.

Many thanks to the Okanagan Dog Owners Association for building and maintaining this site.

No rules are posted on site but this is what is posted on the City of Kelowna website.
