Our drawing of the route — the shape of the walk, not a navigation aid. Carry OS Explorer on the hill. Off-lead information here is what walkers reported or what signage allows — never our advice. Whether and when a dog is off the lead is the owner’s decision and legal responsibility; keep dogs under control near livestock and follow signs on the day.

Directions to the start →

Opened in 1885 between Walton Street and Anlaby Road, West Park is the green setting for the MKM Stadium and for Hull Fair, which takes over the Walton Street side for a week every October. Away from the stadium it is a straightforward Victorian park of mature limes, wide lawns, a bowling green, an aviary and a lake, with a made-up path circuit that stays walkable through the winter. It is Hull City Council land, and the council closes only the play area to dogs; the city has no dog control Public Spaces Protection Order at all. Match days and fair week both make this a lead-only park in practice, and the aviary birds are worth steering a keen dog past.

THE SMALL PRINTHull City Council's page for West Park states: "Only assistance dogs are welcome in the play area." Nothing else in the park is closed to dogs and there is no lead rule. Hull City Council operates no dog control Public Spaces Protection Order: its only PSPO covers begging, loitering and street drinking across nine wards and the city-centre safer entertainment zone, and says nothing about dogs.
