Peter Murrell Reserve, Huntingfield
Sunday 9 August 2020 at 11am
On-lead
Meet at the car park near Coffee Creek, Huntingfield.
Peter Murrell Reserve is a bushland reserve with a network of tracks leading to Howden and Blackmans Bay. It is a good area for anyone liking easy bushwalks to know about. The area played an important part in the formation of the Kingborough Dog Walking Association in the late 1990s.
Directions:
-
Drive to Mitre 10 Fork in the Road, Huntingfield Avenue, Huntingfield, and keep on driving along Huntingfield Avenue.
-
Just after the Institute of Mine Seismology there's a road track on the left. Turn down this road and drive to the carpark at the end.
-
Note Kingsgate Circle is the street after the road to the carpark so if you reach Kingsgate Circle, you've come a little too far.

Off-lead
Meet at the car park, Shark Point Road, Penna
Penna Bonds is an off-lead area with a few paddocks and a beach. Note the far end of the beach is not fenced so dogs can quickly run up the bank to the road.
