Magical Mossy Forest

Unfenced
5 acres

Magical Mossy Forest Sniffspot is a large mystical woodland adventure for dogs in Redmond on the way to Carnation. Boots are recommended in the winter rain. MMF is preferred by puppies, dogs, people, adults and kids alike because it has potable water, power, picnic tables, chairs, several firepits, lit portapotties, 3 swing sets, 3 slides, monkey bars, 3 Forts, a log bridge to cross over Little Ames Creek for when the creek is flowing, a doggy playground, lots of picturesque moss, lighted parking lot, woodchip trails and many footpaths over 5 forested moss covered acres. Parking is near the road, separated by 50 ft of woods, so we suggest that all our doggy friends be leashed until they are on the trails with you. Please leash your dog until into the forest away from the parking area, after that Bob's Your Uncle! Watch kids and dogs in the parking area near the road, and at Ames Creek. A secluded place to dork out and have fun, enjoying a natural Pacific rainforest. Note that the creek is dry in midsummer until the fall and winter rains kick in. Boots are recommended in the fall and winter. Find a map of the main trails in a photo on our MMF Sniffspot site. There are lots of foot trails through the understory ferns. The log bridge can be used to cross Ames Creek, or you can ford it to discover the rest of Magical Mossy Forest Sniffspot. Please pack out doggy bags with you because there is no garbage pickup here, please leave no trace. If there is a downpour and you want to wait it out there is a dry shed in the parking area. Access to power helps keep your batteries charged. Please carry your toilet paper (sorry it walks away). The portapotties are cleaned once a week. Please visit our Facebook page - https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=61555379018442 Let us know if you have any questions. Synchronized play bowing to you!

Camp Dilly Dally Doggie Park In Buckley

Partially Fenced
5 acres

We offer five acres of partially mowed fields and a natural wooded area. There is a small spring-fed pond and access to South Prairie Creek. Since the creek has a variable current, it may be best for larger dogs. The pond is ideal for smaller dogs who aren't strong swimmers. There are some logs and rocks to step over so sturdy shoes are recommended. We make a constant effort to subdue the blackberries but you may encounter strong-willed vines. Please avoid the dead tree area. There is a shed with supplies where you park.

Woodland Tranquility Pathways - find solitude!

Partially Fenced
5 acres

Off-grid Sniffspot location in rural Snohomish Washington! You will have the entire 5-acre property to yourself to enjoy! This part of our property is only used for Sniffspot guests. Would be perfect for those that don’t want to interact with others (i.e. cars driving by, strangers, the neighbors...). Safe place for adventurous individuals that prefer to explore alone with their doggo(s), a doggie daycare retreat (we are very popular with dog walkers and their packs of furry clients), a memorable late evening of star-gazing, or a safe place for a highly reactive dog to have fun. Details: 5 acres, off-grid experience (no power) with it’s own private entrance. Secluded, native woodland experience with mowed grass. Two grassy sloping yard areas, a covered shelter with a table and chairs and “Tranquility Trails” that loop up the hill to a shady, fern filled, mossy ravine with a seasonal stream.. There are (overgrown) cottage style gardens near the Parking Area. During your visit, feel free to pick wild blackberries, apples or roses — or pull weeds — if that’s fun for you. 😉. This location is very relaxing. Plan for a couple hours or more to enjoy the quiet, rural lifestyle. TIP: if you have any concerns about your pup(s) going down the driveway, feel free to close the gate for added safety. Note: We are raising money to renovate the cottage located on the property by hosting a Sniffspot. Please do not explore inside the house, a roof collapse happened before we could arrange for it to be replaced.

Circle of Life & Green Burial Sanctuary In Kingston

Partially Fenced
15 acres

Fifteen acres of what dogs actually want. A two-acre pasture for a flat-out run, wooded trails that go on longer than you'd expect, gentle inclines, and long straight stretches for the dogs who like to open the throttle. The smells out here are the good stuff — rabbit, damp earth, and a hundred things your dog won't tell you about. Two horses live here and roam loose. They're calm, completely uninterested in dogs and people, and unbothered even by barking — most guests find them a lovely part of the visit. If you are concerned about the horses, please message me upon booking and I will make sure they are in their own pasture for your visit. Come for a sniffari, a hard run, or a peaceful wander with a hot drink after in the little indoor café. Quiet, beautiful, and for your visit, entirely yours.

55I love John’s Sniffspot and I always try to go back whenever I can. The dogs love exploring the trails and running around. The Sniffspot is beautiful and you can notice John takes very good care of his place. This is one of the best Sniffspots in WA and I’m sure any dog will love it!

55so much fun!! we had the best time! when you first get there the host will walk you & the pups (on leash) to the section that is the sniff spot. there’s a map, hooks to hang your bags & leashes, trash bins for poop, etc. the trails can be kinda steep towards the top but there’s literally a bench around every corner so you can take a break any time you need to. we stopped at every bench we saw on the way back down so the dogs could investigate thoroughly and we enjoyed a great & unique view at each one. we did the loop two and a half times and took breaks in the river and my dogs are pooped. they enjoyed sniffing all the best pee spots and zooming across the bridges. great area for behavior training, building confidence, doing zooms, backpacking practice, etc. Even our dog that’s scared of the water was willing to check it out here! if you have T Mobile, be sure to note how you got to the site as service is spotty!

55Paradise for us and the pups! John met us when we arrived and kindly gave us a tour of the huge property and a map to stay oriented. The dogs had an amazing time exploring the trails and playing in the creek and fields. We all left a bit muddy from exploring the back trails so I’d recommend wearing the right shoes and bringing a towel — though there is plenty of non-muddy fun if that’s not your thing. We will definitely be back!

55Spring Acres never fails to delight us. We come here often and we both enjoy the woodland trails and we get a great workout on the hilly terrain. My dog loves to take a few dunks in the creek in this warm weather too. He used to react to the animals in the paddock, but he’s gotten so used to them he barely notices them anymore. Hiking / good walking shoes are adequate right now (rather than muck boots) as there is only one trail that is still muddy - it’s a short one and we simply avoided it. I’d recommend some bug repellent though as there are some areas where mosquitoes are making an appearance. Overall, a highly recommended Sniffspot!

Frequently asked questions about Federal Way dog hiking trails

What do private dog hiking trails in Federal Way offer that public parks don't?

Private dog hiking trails in Federal Way offer complete privacy (no other dogs), specialized environments for natural exploration and varied terrain, professionally maintained cleanliness, flexible 24/7 scheduling, and safe spaces for all temperaments—puppies, seniors, small dogs, reactive dogs, or any pup needing accommodations. Public dog parks in Federal Way can't guarantee any of this. With 26 options, you get predictable, controlled environments perfect for your dog's specific needs.

Can I find fully fenced private dog parks in Federal Way?

Yes! Most of Federal Way's 26 private dog parks are fully fenced. Use the "fully fenced" filter to find secure enclosures with detailed specs: height (4ft, 6ft, 8ft+), material (wood, chain-link, vinyl), and gap information. This is crucial for escape artists, puppies learning boundaries, reactive dogs needing contained space, or small dogs who might squeeze through. Federal Way listings include fencing photos so you can verify security.

When can puppies start visiting dog hiking trails in Federal Way?

Puppies can visit Federal Way dog hiking trails as early as 8-10 weeks with initial vaccinations, much earlier than the 16+ weeks needed for public park safety. This early, controlled socialization prevents fear and reactivity issues later. Plus, puppies can explore natural exploration and varied terrain without being overwhelmed or learning bad behaviors from poorly socialized adult dogs. Many Federal Way trainers specifically use dog hiking trails for puppy development.

How do I find private dog hiking trails near me in Federal Way?

Browse Federal Way's 26 dog hiking trails on Sniffspot by entering your neighborhood or zip code. Filter by distance, then narrow by features: fully fenced, "fewer dogs seen/heard," specific amenities, terrain type, or size. Each Federal Way listing shows photos, reviews, exact location, and instant availability. Local favorite Black Pond Farm - Explore Trails/Woodland Hiking! is particularly popular among Federal Way dog owners.

Can I rent dog hiking trails in Federal Way by the hour?

Yes! All 26 dog hiking trails in Federal Way are available for hourly rental. Most bookings are 1-2 hours, though you can reserve longer for training or events. Book instantly through Sniffspot, arrive during your time slot, and have complete privacy. Many Federal Way dog owners rent weekly for consistent, safe exercise.

What's the difference between Sniffspot dog hiking trails and public dog parks in Federal Way?

The biggest difference is privacy and control. Public dog parks in Federal Way mean sharing space with unknown dogs and owners. That means you can't control who shows up or how they behave. Sniffspot's 26 Federal Way dog hiking trails give you private bookings where only your dogs are present. You choose the time, the space, and the environment. Plus, your pup enjoys natural exploration and varied terrain and maintained cleanliness that public parks can't guarantee.

Are there indoor dog hiking trails in Federal Way?

Yes! Federal Way has climate-controlled indoor dog hiking trails perfect for extreme weather, rainy days, or year-round exercise. Indoor Federal Way locations typically feature protective flooring, controlled temperatures, and enclosed environments. They're especially popular for puppy training, senior dogs, reactive dogs, or anyone wanting consistent access regardless of Federal Way weather. Filter by "indoor" to see options.

How do Federal Way dog hiking trails help with dog training?

Federal Way trainers love dog hiking trails because privacy eliminates distractions. Work on recall, practice trail recall in natural environments, leash manners on varied terrain, or hiking endurance building, reinforce obedience, socialize puppies, or address reactivity without interruptions. For reactive dogs, train without trigger-stacking. For puppies, practice skills in controlled increments. For any dog, get focused training time in an environment specifically designed for natural exploration and varied terrain.
