55Our pup had a great time exploring the property! Lots of trails and areas to play! She’s generally reactive around other dogs, so it was great being free of distractions.Zach B.

55We recently moved to the area and there aren't any safe parks near our house to bring my dog. She's a border Collie mix, and a rescue, so she needs a lot of exercise. I decided to turn to sniffspot to find a place where we could be safe, and have a secluded space for my girl to roam around; this Sniffspot did not disappoint! There was PLENTY of space to roam and explore, and the trails were pretty well marked. Only thing to note is wear waterproof boots/shoes as the grounds have some muddy spots! Gabby O.

55such a great spot!! we rented it for two hours and had plenty of space to roam even when we tried to avoid the outer trails. the instructions upon booking made it super clear that we were in the right place and how to get to the trails. there’s a little stream that we crossed on foot that my dog loved romping in. it feels like your own private hike and we had a great time, would absolutely book again!
one thing to note: no fault of the property owners at all, but neighboring properties are clearly visible from perimeter trails. the houses are a ways back but we heard and saw neighbors including children playing and people working in their backyards. the (in use) horse pasture fence is only about ~15 feet off the trail. again, not an issue - just a warning to those with reactive dogs who might want to avoid triggers.

55Terrific spot! The trails are well maintained and the area is gorgeous. The directions for accessing the property were helpful. My dogs loved racing along the paths and stomping in the stream. I recommend bringing waterproof boots-- they are great for crossing the stream at the entrance. Would love to come back!! Misty M.

55We loved exploring here 🐾 there were a lot of bunnies. They had a great time exploring all the smells and chasing each other. It provided the experience of an off leash hike without the worry of other dogs/people surprising us. We will definitely be back! Annie K.

55We loved this Sniffspot! My wife and I booked this to take our puppy Reggie to celebrate his 1st birthday, and he had a blast. Plenty of room for him to run and explore and even a picnic table for us all to take a breather and have a snack. After a quick bath when we got home, he’ll be sleeping peacefully for the rest of the night. Thanks Jeanette!Nicholas S.

55We had the best time!! This 130 pound guy is extremely dog reactive and we can’t find many safe places to walk until we discovered sniff spots. This place was beautiful!! And well maintained trails. We were able to walk Baloo with just a long lead and he loved it so much having more freedom and feeling safe and not worrying about coming across other dogs was honestly life changing. We will be coming here all the time now.Brianna D.

55This is a great space to get your dog out in the woods without worrying about any other people or dogs popping up on the trail. There’s a small stream to cross in the beginning and the trail is mowed and easy to navigate. I’m sure we will be back!Frederick S.

55We had a blast hiking the trails. Our dog is highly dog reactive and it was wonderfully relaxing to let her have 50 feet of leash without worrying what she’d encounter around the bend. Allie G.

55Jeanette made the whole process smooth and the property was lovely! I have 2 reactive dogs and it was great to not have to worry about running into any people or other dogs. My boys enjoyed playing ball and traversing the trails for a few hours. It was easy to return to the stream to cool off as needed. Juliana V.

55Firstly, this is a fabulous place. It’s basically is in the middle of nowhere and has plenty of mown trails with lots of trees.
I visited in 90+ degree weather and am directionally challenged.
The stream is quite a ways down hill from where the trails are
Bring water.
I drove up to the trails, which requires driving through the stream (0nly an inch or two deep) and up a dirt road that is very steep. I was fine with my AWD Outback. Once up the short dirt road you’re on hard pack dirt or milled paths.
Find a place to park and my suggestion is to drop a pin on your smart phone to assist finding your way back to your car.
There are so many paths, it was easy for me to get turned around.
We had a great time!

55Great spot for you and your dog to get some exercise. Lots of well-kept trails to walk and enough places to rest so that you won't see the same thing more than twice. Be sure to bring water and you do have to cross a small creek to access the trails so if your pup is afraid of water you'll have to give him a push like I did.Sean K.

FAQ about our Pottstown 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.
