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!

Storybrook Farm 114 Acre Unfenced Private Dog Park In Damascus

Unfenced
114 acres

We’re excited to share our farm with you and your pups! Our 114-acre property is something really special—rolling fields, shaded wooded trails, and ponds where dogs can swim and play freely. It’s peaceful, private, and incredibly beautiful in every season. We’ve tried to think of all the little details to make your visit easy and enjoyable, including trail maps with distances, fresh drinking water for both you and your dog, towels for muddy paws or wet fur, and easy parking on asphalt. We’re dog lovers ourselves and have two rescue pups who will be safely secured inside our home during your reserved time so you can enjoy uninterrupted access to the property. Whether you’re here for a long walk or just to let your dog run wild, we hope it feels like your own private retreat.

Mark's 5 Acre Unfenced Private Dog Park In Kearneysville

Unfenced
5 acres

There is a road bordering property. If your dog is off leash he/she needs strong recall. Also, pond is very muddy, I dont recommend swimming for dogs. There are a few short trails around the property. I don't have a lot of restrictions as I probably will be at the house when you are there. I only ask that visitors do not allow animals on house property such as porches and wood walkways. We are approachable if you see us outside and encourage it. Our beloved GSD 'Samantha' passed a year ago and we miss seeing her running through the fields. Deer on property daily but they will avoid you generally with canines. If your pet has an unhinged prey drive I'd probably bag it since I border several acres of wooded property with zero containment. Thick, unmanaged forest!

Bloomhill Farm over 5 Acre Farmland and Forrest Partially Fenced Private Dog Park In the heart of Manassas

Partially Fenced
5 acres

This is a great area, a farm secluded in the middle of Manassas. There is a large field on the side of the house that is mowed and maintained. Behind the field there is a wooded area that you can also explore with a small fence that will show you the boundary. There are some trails maintained and mowed throughout the wooded area as well. We are adjacent to the 234 bypass but a line of trees shield you from the sight of cars. There are no domestic animals here anymore but the fields are still here and beautiful. There is plenty of room for you and your dog to run around and enjoy some peace, quiet, and freedom!! You can throw your Frisbee or ball as far as you want! There is a covered little seating area and a hose for freshwater or if you need to hose down some feet. There is a trash can available and easy parking. I hope you enjoy this area as much as we do it's a beautiful place and we want to share it.

100 Acre Unfenced Private Fields, Trails, Ponds & Streams

Unfenced
100 acres

A true off-leash adventure for dogs who love freedom and nature! Enjoy 100 acres of unfenced fields, rolling hills, and wooded trails—perfect for dogs who love to explore. You can hike on designated trails, on mowed fields or use the ponds for water training for hours with your pup(s). Our farm has: ✔️ Abundant wildlife! ✔️ Wide-open, completely unfenced land ✔️ Natural terrain with fields, hills, and trails ✔️ Ponds, streams and endless sniffing opportunities Parking & Arrival: Please park to the right of the big red barn, by the dumpster and begin walking from there. The farm sits on a very sharp curve, so use caution when entering and exiting the property. Dogs must be on leash when exiting your car and near the road. Once you are safely away from the road and barn, dogs may be off leash for the remainder of your visit. If your dog has never been off leash, we recommend you have an airtag or a GPS collar on them. Please do not let your dog leave the designated walking areas on our farm. Occasionally, you may see an older grampa (my father) working in the fields.

Horse Farm in Lovettsville

Partially Fenced
28 acres

Come for our glorious sunrises on the creek and sunsets in the fields or just to enjoy the day exploring the fields and creek. The dog area starts past the broken black fence behind the house and goes down through the fields and into the woods. I would appreciate it if you would kindly please keep the dogs leashes and wait until you are past the broken fence to allow your dog to do any business. If your dog is under control or if the horses are not out, you can let them loose right after the broken fence. If you think your dog might be nutty with the horses, please take appropriate measures. To get to the creek, go past the broken fence and keep going down the hill to the back tree line. I have included a map in the pictures. And then just keep walking; it’s about five minutes from the house to the trailhead. We have set out fluorescent yellow markers on the trees on the back tree line as you approach the trail. We also put up a blue sign that says “To The Creek” at the trail head. Once in the woods, walk down the steep hill and take the trail to the right at the bottom of the hill, before the little ravine. That trail will take you out to a spot where your dog can splash around and I’ve cut a few trails to explore back there. If you go to the red barn, you’ve gone too far. The trail is right at the base of the hill. We are looking forward to having you!

55Our dogs had the best time here! The fenced yard is spacious with lots of areas to sniff and run around. Very quiet and peaceful when we stopped by. There is a picnic table and seating under a shaded patio which is great for both humans and dogs to cool off during warmer days! We also explored the unfenced area a bit and walked down to the creek. Highly recommend and would love to bring our pups back again. Thanks so much for sharing your beautiful space!

The yard was very clean and welcoming, with chairs, water bowls, dog bags and a sand box for digging. It was also private so I didn't worry when he barked. I will certainly be going back.

55I brought my dog and my neighbor’s two dogs, all who have a lot to say. This was a great spot- it’s a large fenced off yard within the 5 acres, so it is pretty private and peaceful so the dogs had very little to bark at, just play time! ***An important thing to note for athletic dogs or escape artists: there is wood piled against the back fence and the dogs will climb up and hop the fence if you don’t keep an eye on them. *** The yard was well kept, clean, and they communicated very well, which was great. They provided poop bags, a trash can, and reminded me to bring water, which was much appreciated. We will definitely go back :).

Frequently asked questions about Fairfax dog hiking trails

What amenities do Fairfax dog hiking trails typically include?

Fairfax dog hiking trails feature amenities designed for natural exploration and varied terrain: wooded trails, open meadows, and varied natural terrain, secure fencing options, water stations, waste disposal, and often extras like toys, shade structures, or parking. Unlike public parks with generic setups, Fairfax hosts customize their spaces. Browse 22 listings to compare—from bare essentials to luxury amenities perfect for your dog's needs.

How much does it cost to use Fairfax dog hiking trails?

Sniffspot runs on a membership model with monthly and annual plans that include credits toward Fairfax dog park bookings. Members get discounted rates at participating Fairfax spots, and new users can start with a 7-day free trial. There are no surprise booking fee. Your credits cover the reservation. Browse Fairfax dog hiking trails listings to see individual spot pricing, and check your membership dashboard to see how many credits you have available.

How clean are private dog hiking trails in Fairfax compared to public parks?

Significantly cleaner. Public dog parks in Fairfax see dozens of dogs daily with sporadic city maintenance. Private dog hiking trails have dedicated hosts who maintain their own spaces—cleanliness directly affects their reviews and bookings. Many Fairfax hosts provide fresh poop bags, sanitized water stations, and regular grounds cleaning. With only one booking at a time, waste accumulation is minimal.

Can I book Fairfax dog hiking trails on short notice?

Usually yes! Many Fairfax dog hiking trails offer same-day or next-day availability with instant booking. Unlike public parks that might be crowded unpredictably, Fairfax private dog hiking trails let you reserve exactly when needed: early morning before work, midday breaks, evening exercise. Real-time availability shows on each listing—perfect for last-minute training or when routines get disrupted.

What's the best time to visit dog hiking trails in Fairfax?

Any time works since bookings are private! Unlike public dog parks in Fairfax that are crowded during peak hours (mornings, evenings, weekends), you don't worry about timing. Book when it fits YOUR schedule—midday when it's quiet, dawn for cool weather, late evening for convenience. Many Fairfax dog hiking trails have lighting for after-dark visits. This flexibility is perfect for shift workers or dogs with special needs.

Do Fairfax dog hiking trails allow multiple dogs?

Yes! Most Fairfax dog hiking trails welcome multiple dogs from the same household. Some hosts set limits (check listings), but generally you can bring your whole pack. This is perfect for multi-dog households in Fairfax where some dogs are selective—they can play together privately without outside interference. Great for sibling bonding or families with mixed ages/temperaments.

Can I use Fairfax dog hiking trails for special events?

Many Fairfax dog hiking trails welcome doggy birthday parties, training workshops, breed meetups, or group playdates. Private bookings mean your event won't be interrupted. Coordinate with Fairfax hosts about capacity, amenities (parking, shade, water), and any restrictions. Some even provide party extras. Check individual Fairfax dog hiking trail listings for event policies.

How do Fairfax dog hiking trails accommodate dogs with special needs?

Fairfax dog hiking trails are excellent for special needs dogs because you can filter for specific requirements: flat terrain for mobility issues, secure fencing for blind/deaf dogs, quiet locations for anxious dogs, small spaces for seniors, or maximum privacy for reactive dogs. Read reviews from other Fairfax special-needs dog owners, and contact hosts with questions. The private setting means you can adapt the experience to your dog's unique requirements.
