Faux Mountain Views

Unfenced
17 acres

The views are incredible and we call it our Faux Mountains especially with a light fog. You can typically see around 4 miles out across the horizon. Fall leaves will make this a great photo opp for those looking for pet pictures. Over half of a mile of Trails and a couple of small fields focused around the pine trees in a previously logged area. Please do not cross the creeks. We plan to open that area up once we get signage to over a mile of trails. There is a hidden fallen down house can you find it along the trails? please be careful of the main road, and try not to let your dogs run off. During deer season please wear blaze orange or pink. Gravel Parking area is just outside the gate, the single wire electric fence isn't ever on. We hope to improve upon this if it shows popularity. Be mindful of wildlife, farm life, and please keep your dog under control at all times. The drive around the pines is pretty easy walking. The fields may have sticks or stones in them so be mindful of your fur babies feet in those areas. If you head down past the cow waterer you can let your dog get a sip from the creek if need be, but please don't go to the other side yet.

Laken's 22 Acre Unfenced Private Dog Park In Palmyra

Unfenced
22 acres

Our property is nestled on approximately 50 acres, offering plenty of space for dogs to explore and enjoy. While not all of the land is cleared, there is a large, open cleared area surrounding our two homes. The rest of the property is beautifully wooded, with a trail that winds around the property and provides a great space for walks, sniffing, and exploring. Please note: Because of the wooded areas and natural setting, ticks can be commonly found throughout the woods. We recommend checking your dog for ticks after exploring the wooded portions of the property.

55We enjoyed the space so much! My girl is reactive and coming across sniffspot has given me hope I can get her out periodically. So many people just don’t understand it. Everything was wonderful in this spot! My dog was relaxed and able to sniff a frog as it hopped away, she was into the walk and not anxious. The host is very accommodating and thoughtful. Part of the walk is a rocky terrain comparable to hiking which made it even better, enjoying the woods. We did not get in the river due to rains causing the river to be up and fast moving. I’m looking forward to returning.

Filter by fencing, size, distractions, and amenities to match your needs.

When can I book dog hiking trails in Arrington?

Arrington dog hiking trails are available based on host scheduling—many operate dawn to dusk or even 24/7. Unlike public dog parks with rigid hours, you choose the exact time that works for you.

What's the most popular dog hiking trail in Arrington?

Michele's Private Dog Park In Charlottesville- There are 17 farm fields within the farm so you must call us before visit for your assigned vacant pasture. is highly rated among Arrington dog hiking trails, known for excellent amenities and positive reviews. However, the "best" spot depends on your dog's needs—reactive dogs might prioritize privacy and quiet, puppies might need secure fencing, seniors might want flat terrain, while active dogs might want maximum running space. Browse Arrington listings to find your ideal match.

Can I use Arrington dog hiking trails for training sessions?

Yes! Arrington dog hiking trails are perfect for training because they're private and distraction-free. Work on recall, practice trail recall in natural environments, leash manners on varied terrain, or hiking endurance building, help reactive dogs build confidence, socialize puppies, or work on obedience—all without public dog park unpredictability. Many Arrington professional trainers use these spaces for client sessions with all types of dogs.

Do Arrington dog hiking trails accommodate multiple dogs?

Most Arrington dog hiking trails welcome multiple dogs from the same household. Some hosts set limits (check listings for specifics).
