Sunday Parliamentary triangle walk - history, politics and art

Who says you can't enjoy art and culture with your dog? This is a really cool walk taking in the highlights of Canberra's Parliamentary Triangle. We'll explore the pretty inner gardens of Old Parliament House; get up close to the NGA's best sculptures; and stroll along the edge of Lake Burley Griffin with views across to the War Memorial.

The walk starts and finishes at the National Library where we can access easy pay parking and dog-friendly café tables if you'd like to stay after the walk for coffee/breakfast.

This is an on-leash only walk, but there's lots of variety and interest for dogs and their humans.

The whole route is fairly flat, approx 4 km and with a group completed in around 90 minutes, but allow up to 2 hours in case we dawdle around the sculpture garden.

Important info:

• You walk entirely at your own risk and you are wholly responsible for your own, and your dog's, behaviour; by rsvping 'yes' to this walk you understand and agree to this condition.
• All off-leash activities are at the discretion of the walk guide. If for any reason they feel any dog should be back on lead, please respect their decision, as they are trying to ensure everyone has a pleasant experience.
• We ask $7.50 per adult to be paid by card to the guide at the beginning of the walk - children (under 18) walk free of charge. The charge helps cover our meetup subscription, insurance, internet, petrol, and other costs. We will gladly refund this if you are not happy for any reason.
