The Kaiapoi Dog Park opened on 30 November 2019. The park has been built on previous red zone land. Many trees and shrubs that were once the pride of residents' private gardens have been retained. With park benches throughout, it already has the feeling of an established park. Kaiapoi's dog park covers 2.2 hectares; 1.6 hectares for large dogs and a separate small dog area of 0.6 hectares. Facilities include dog waste bins and bag dispensers, and drinking fountains with dog bowls.
There are three entrances to the park are off Charles St, Jollie St, and also within the Honda Forest area.
