55This is a great little hike that is in town. Cute and eclectic camp spots with lots of space for the dog to explore.
55Interesting spot!
55Great spot!
55Nice little spot to explore! We left early since it was actively rainy/slippery but we enjoyed the time we had. Lots of fun stuff to look at for the humans, and our dog Sutton enjoyed a lot of good sniffs! She loved climbing the tires on the steeper parts. We’d love to visit again in the future when there’s less rain :)
45This place is really cool if you read the posting and know what you’re in for which I did not.
55Far exceeded our expectations! Letting all of our friends know about this spot.
55Neat spot!
55Cool trails. There were other people at the property but nobody bothers you.
55So fun to walk around the short trails, and if your pup likes fetch there is a very long lawn for them to really get going
55Fun trails in the woods.

Location

Asheville, North Carolina

Description

Whistlepig Trails offers 5 acres of wooded, hand-maintained trails designed for dogs and their humans to explore. The paths wind through a natural hillside, with gentle slopes, packed earth, and plenty of interesting scents along the way. Maintained with care, these trails provide a safe and engaging space for dogs to roam, sniff, and stretch their legs. Located within a small, artsy campground, the space has a rustic, creative feel, with upcycled structures and a relaxed atmosphere. Sniff Spot visitors are welcome to use the restroom facilities during their visit. Please keep your pups on a leash at all times. Please note that it is possible that the neighbors dogs could make an appearance. Unfortunately, we have no control over this. :( There's a good chance you'll see other people around the property while you're here. We run a campground for visitors to Asheville and also have folks who live on the property.

Great space! Lots of leaves, a little hilly. The shrubs and trees create a semi-fenced in yard. Hardly any dogs walk around near the house. My dog is reactive with other dogs but has not had an issue with not having a fence. Great yard for throwing ball!

Please read everything about this property before booking. There are detailed descriptions about what to expect. If you book this property it's assumed that you are comfortable navigating steep, rugged trails. And that you understand there is mud present. Sometimes very slippery mud if it has rained recently. In addition, please message me in the app if you need anything or have an issue. I'm happy to help if I'm around (and usually I am).
