Anna's Orchard Creek Farm In Upper Marlboro

Unfenced
5 acres

A small private horse farm that directly backs up to a state park. Fields, woods, and creek on property. Dogs must stay out of the horse pasture (some horses may chase them). I have a friendly foxhound on site, although she stays in the house unless I'm walking her. She does love other dogs to play with however!

Willow Pond Farm – Open Acres & Beautiful Sunsets

Unfenced
8 acres

Welcome to our spacious polocrosse field located on a working horse farm! This large, open field offers plenty of room for your dog to run, sniff, and explore. The perimeter is always kept mowed, and you’re welcome to walk all the way around the field. To the right, you’ll also find a trail that follows alongside a ditch for a little extra adventure. You can see our horses and farm in the distance, and the sunset views across the field are absolutely stunning! Because this is an active horse farm, you may occasionally see horses being ridden nearby or around the field. Please keep your dog under control whenever horses or riders are present, and always clean up after your dog. Important parking information: Please do not pull into the farm’s private driveway. There are two entrances directly into the polocrosse field—please enter through either one and park on the field. We hope you enjoy the peaceful farm views, beautiful sunsets, fresh air, and plenty of room to roam!

Dowell has 10 private dog hiking trails available through Sniffspot, offering natural exploration and varied terrain in completely private settings. These locations range from compact spaces to properties spanning 200+ acres. Whether you need a space for your reactive dog, puppy socialization, senior dog gentle exercise, or high-energy play, Dowell dog hiking trails provide safe, private environments.

Each Dowell dog hiking trail listing shows detailed photos, amenities, fencing specs, and reviews from local dog owners.

Are Dowell dog hiking trails good for all dog types?

Yes! Dowell dog hiking trails work for every dog: puppies learning socialization, senior dogs needing gentle exercise, small dogs who feel safer without large breeds, high-energy dogs requiring space, and reactive or anxious dogs needing privacy. The completely private bookings mean each dog gets the environment they need. Browse Dowell's 10 options to find spaces matching your dog's specific temperament and needs.

Will I encounter other dogs at Dowell dog hiking trails?

Not a chance. Dowell dog hiking trails operate on a strict one-booking-at-a-time system, so the space is entirely yours during your reserved slot. Host dogs are kept away, and there's a mandatory 30-minute buffer between bookings—meaning you won't cross paths with the previous or next guest. For Dowell owners with reactive dogs, puppies, or any dog needing privacy, this makes all the difference in providing safe, stress-free exercise.

Are Dowell dog hiking trails safe for fearful or anxious dogs?

Yes! Dowell dog hiking trails provide controlled, predictable environments without the chaos of public dog parks. Since bookings are completely private with 30-minute buffers, anxious dogs can explore a natural outdoor path where dogs can explore varied terrain off-leash in a safe, private environment without overwhelming encounters. Many Dowell dog owners specifically choose dog hiking trails for fearful dogs who need gentle, stress-free exercise environments.

Can puppies use Dowell dog hiking trails?

Absolutely! Dowell dog hiking trails are excellent for puppy socialization because they're private and controlled. Puppies can explore a natural outdoor path where dogs can explore varied terrain off-leash in a safe, private environment, practice recall, and build confidence without the overwhelming chaos that can create fear or reactivity in young dogs. Just ensure your puppy has age-appropriate vaccinations before visiting.

How do I choose the best dog hiking trail in Dowell?

Start by filtering Dowell's 10 dog hiking trails for your specific needs: secure fencing for escape artists, "fewer dogs seen/heard" for reactive dogs, flat terrain for seniors, appropriate sizing for small dogs, or specific amenities for training. Look for "Top Spots" like Dowell's The 80 acre wood with excellent reviews.Read feedback from other Dowell owners with similar dog types to find your perfect match.

What are Dowell's dog hiking trail requirements?

All dogs must have basic vaccinations or titers. Each Dowell host may have additional rules on their listing. Most dog hiking trails welcome all breeds, sizes, and temperament levels, including reactive dogs who can't safely visit public dog parks. Adult supervision is required at all times.
