Off-Leash Dog Area at Enmore Park
Enmore Park has a fully fenced, gated and tree-lined off-leash dog area on Llewellyn Street. The off-leash zone is the part of the park bounded by Llewellyn Street and two diagonal paths that lead inward from that side. The dog area has agility equipment, water, poo bags, shelter and seating. Elsewhere in Enmore Park dogs must be on a leash, and they are not allowed in the children's playground or on the sportsfields during organised games.

Enmore Park has a playground that suits children of all ages and abilities. Its equipment includes a rocket, swings, slides, a spider climbing net, see-saws and spring ride-ons. The play area sits under a sail shade over a soft-fall surface, although the playground itself is not fenced. Beyond the playground, shady trees and undercover areas across Enmore Park give families relief from the sun on hot days.
