a shelter and seating
new and improved agility zones
improved paths and lighting
more plants and tree to come in planting season!
New signage will be installed soon to support responsible pet ownership across the reserve.
Stay tuned for details of an opening event in the coming months.
Where is it?
The Aranga Reserve dog park is located at 1 Eastway Avenue in Donvale, next to Heatherwood School. The park is accessible from Eastway Avenue or Aranga Court. The eastern end of the reserve faces Springvale Road.
Why is it needed?
We’re upgrading this dog park due to its age and condition. Our goal is to make sure the dog park meets the needs of the community both now and for years to come.
Community feedback has highlighted several needs, including:
dedicated separate access into the quiet dog area to support less social dogs
seating and shade in the main dog area to improve comfort
upgraded agility equipment to better accommodate increased use
lighting along the path between Aranga Crescent and Eastway Avenue to improve connectivity and safety.
This project is part of our Parks Improvement Program and will be delivered under our 2025/26 Capital Works Program.
The Aranga Reserve dog park upgrade is supported by the Victorian Government through the New and Upgraded Dog Park program (Round 2).
When is it happening?
The upgraded dog park at Aranga Reserve is now complete.
How will it affect me?
The dog activity park and reserve will remain open during construction, with some areas fenced off for safety during works.
Have your say
The upgrade has been informed by community consultation, with feedback helping shape the final design.
