55Very nice trails with thoughtful water stops and trash cans along the way. The areas in are fenced off, and the trails are sectioned off with a good amount of vegetation on the sides. Vanessa B.

55Beautiful grounds! Quiet and peaceful. Communication and directions were very good. Dogs had a blast and are soundly sleeping now when we got home. :)Kathleen M.

55Loved this area and so did the dogs. So much to explore and sniff. Our lab’s nose was going nonstop and was anxious to make sure she didn’t miss any important sniffs. Our Golden did more of a leisurely stroll-and-sniff. The trails were easy to follow and the trees kept the temperatures nice and cool. We will definitely be coming back for another sniffing experience. Patrick B.

55Lovely! A quiet meander around the woods. I was a little nervous in a couple spots where the trail ran up against people's backyards but I just called my dogs away and moved on. I appreciate the multiple spots to sit and being able to drive in! Jessi C.

55Nice property with a few trails. Quiet and clean. Felt safe being there alone with my pup. There are couple of water spots for thirsty pups and picnic tables. Overall we had a good experience. Louisa L.

55My dog and I loved it! The space was clean and well maintained, and an hour was the perfect amount of time - my dog took a nap on the drive home. We used our 30 ft leash to prevent her from running off too far or into any neighbors Roslyn W.

55We just went for the first time. Our Golden retriever loved it! He got some much needed exercise and had a good run. There are several water stations set up as well as trash cans. We were able to pull through the gate and park inside, off the street. We walked all the trails and it only took about 20 minutes, so if the human is looking for exercise, that’s limited. There are chairs/picnic tables where you can sit and let the dog run around on his own. Mary D.

55Paul’s spot is amazing. He’s done sooo much work and is a true steward of the land. I visited both Paul and his spot today. What a gracious host, and I even got cookies! This is a spot that you need to visit several times to get the full appreciation of the work he’s done. Definitely book out more than an hour, and bring a picnic to enjoy at the two areas outfitted with picnic tables and fire pits. I booked 2, and could have used 2 more! I’ve got a SniffSpot of my own, but Paul’s place is more “wild” in a GOOD way, which is absolutely perfect for dogs to get the zoomies out. Mary Ann P.

55Since I was last here they added some fencing on either side of the gates and it’s enough to keep my sneakier dog in the spot. Such a lovely place to walk around!Jo B.

55Our dogs absolutely loved this park and so did we. Good trails, pick icky tables, and it was really pretty. When you are on 86th Ave the gate is on your right hand side. We missed it because it looked like 86th went to the left but that actually turned into 84th. So don't miss the gate. We will be back for sure!Amber F.

55A wonderful property, great for training your pal to go on hikes and trails of leash! Amazing communication, and very welcoming. Only bad thing to say is I couldn't book it for more time!Mario A.

55Like heaven on earth to me…. With my fur kids at my side or running ahead and checking back to make I am coming with them. My husband appreciated the chairs and break area while my dogs enjoyed the water provided. One of my dogs found a tennis ball and was beside herself. Carried it around and wanted to take it home but we convinced her it needed to stay for the next dog to find. Thank you Paul for sharing your precious land with us… we love it more than you can know.

55This is an excellent sniff spot. It is a secluded wooded refuge in a suburban/residential area. We saw no people or dogs during our time and the boundaries are clear even without proper full fencing. The host made paper maps available which made the trails completely clear. I’ll definitely go again. Also, you drive a ways into this spot and close a gate behind you, so you can let your dogs right out of the car without having to leash up first. Annie M.

FAQ about our DuPont dog hiking trails
Are dog hiking trails safe?
While public dog parks have a number of safety issues, such as aggressive dogs, inattentive owners, disease transmission and general cleanliness, Sniffspot dog parks are much safer than a city or county park. With a Sniffspot off-leash area all bookings are private for just you and dogs you bring with you and we require all dogs to be vaccinated (or have equivalent titers). All Sniffspot locations are vetted and reviewed by guests so you can find the perfect place for you and your dog. 93% of reviews on Sniffspot visits are 5 stars. Our hiking trails tend to be outside the city, which lends to more privacy, but it is also important to follow typical hiking safety precautions, such as potentially having trail maps.
How do I know if a dog hiking trail works for my dog?
Sniffspot provides the tools to find the ideal spot. Start by applying basic filters, such as fencing 6 feet tall and distractions, to find a dog park with trails that works for your dog. You can also filter by size if you are looking for a certain acre park, an expansive off-leash dog park. If your dog doesn't have good recall, you can visit one of our fully fenced dog hiking trails. If your dog is reactive to other dogs, you can visit one of our dog hiking trails where there are no dogs audible or visible nearby. Since you are looking for trails, make sure to check photos to see if it the spot has flat trails or gnarly trails. You can also browse by specific amenities, if you are looking for a view or a beach, for instance, or other activities or fun features. You can check whether the spot has off or on street parking, the regular park hours, whether it has paved trails or a modern restroom.
What are the requirements to bring my dog to a Sniffspot dog hiking trail?
In order to hike the trails, we require that all dogs have basic vaccinations or equivalent titers. We do not permit dogs with a bite history. We require that guests sign our waiver and agree to follow our safety rules.
Will there be other dogs at the Sniffspot hiking trail at the same time as me?
Sniffspot only allows one booking at a time and any host dogs are required to be kept away from the spot during visits. We also enforce 30 min time buffers between bookings.
