- Dog Notes:
Aylestone Meadows in Leicestershire is a very popular place for dog walking. The meadows and riverside/canal paths offer good space for dogs to exercise. Dogs can often be off-lead in many areas, but ensure they are under control, especially near water (to avoid disturbing wildlife), when livestock might be grazing (check locally), and when other walkers or cyclists are present on shared paths. Please clean up after your dog; bins are usually provided at main access points. Be aware that the meadows can flood.
