Top public and private dog hiking trails in Ogilvie, Minnesota

Dog Hiking Trails

Come hike 63+ acres of land with trails throughout at our future homestead! The first 20 acres is grassland with multiple mowed trails. The back 43+ is wooded with one main trail circling through it and two entrance/exits. The brown “Trail Entrance” signs mark the woods. There is wetland off trail throughout the property, but mostly in the woods. Water levels will vary. The trails are used for ATV’ing but make for a great hike! Plan for a picnic…we have a platform with a picnic table and garbage can available. A beautiful piece of land! Note: The large pond outside the trail at the back of the property in the woods is not ours. The woods trail runs along the border of it. It’s a steep drop to the pond. There’s a house on the other side of it. This is an area you’ll hear people & other noises if they’re outside. *No well or city water access at this time* It’s vacant land we use recreationally right now. :)

Dreamdogos Private Dog Park In Isanti

Oak Ridge Acres Dog Sanctuary's 10 Acre Unfenced Private Dog Park In Forest Lake

7 Acre Fully Fenced Private Dog Park In Lindstrom

Our property is a dog’s paradise! We have an open backyard, wooded trails, and an orchard out back with tall grasses. We keep the trails and orchard mowed for walking, but your dog will have ample woods, puddles, and other adventures at their disposal! Since we live in the woods, we occasionally have trees fall down on our 5 foot welded wire fence. Please be mindful if your dog is an exit seeker, although we walk the fence and mend any spots we see often. There is a large pole barn visible near the gate where you enter that is our neighbor’s yard. His yard/barn is not visible from the rest of the property once you’re down the path a little ways. For SPRING/SUMMER months, tics and mosquitos are around. We do not spray our land, so make sure you and your pup have the protection you need. In summer mosquitos are often worse near dawn and at dusk, especially in thicker parts of the woods, and less so in the backyard and orchard areas. In the winter, we snowmobile our trails to keep them walkable! There may be slippery spots here and there, so prepare accordingly! Be sure to look ahead at the roads on MN 511 in case of winter weather.

Kay's 10 Acre Partially Fenced Private Dog Park In Corcoran

Plan is to open site by June 20, 2026. Front area will have a securely fenced area, as well as adjacent grassy unfenced area. Upon following the driveway to behind the residence, there is another less securely fenced area. This area exits to a pond area and another bigger grassy area. At the point that the path crosses over the creek, a sign posted will request dogs to be leashed beyond that point, both for safety and for the purpose of avoiding intruding upon the neighbor’s property. Various walking paths will be cleared through the small woods, after which walkers may double back and complete their trek in the area around the barn and residence. There will be a small picnic area outside of the front fully fenced private dog park area.
