55Robin was a great host, responded very quickly to our emails and gave us detailed instructions on how to get there and where to go. The property is great with nobody around. There was a lot of growth on the trails to the river but we persevered and it was worth it. We will be back for sure!Gure G.

55We had a great visit to PaJo Ranch - this is a special spot with a lot of space and river access. This was our second visit and this time we drove out around the field part way to allow time to find the path to the river. Next time we will probably walk the whole way. The 2 hour minimum is a must and one might consider booking for longer depending on how much lingering at the river you may want to do. This time the river was a bit chilly for our dog so we didn't stay there more than about half an hour.
This is a fantastic Sniffspot and we will not hesitate to return soon!Susan H.

55Another great visit! This time the fields have been planted with crops (corn) so we had to be mindful of keeping Porter closer to us, which was no problem The trail from the fields to the river are a little more overgrown than last time so we recommend wearing long sleeves and trousers if you want to avoid minor scratches from blackberry bushes etc. The river was wonderful, as always, and we enjoyed a picnic by the water. Next time we come to visit we’ll book for longer! Imee T.

55Great spot! My only suggestion if you are going is to wear long pants, especially if wandering through the woods. The blackberry vines will tear up your legs if you don’t. But my dogs loved it and we will be back!Corey T.

55I visit this spot regularly because I love it and my dog loves it. So much space and access to the river, which is incredibly rare. But even if you don't make it to the river, it's still an amazing spot to walk knowing that you aren't going to run into anyone else. It's such a wonderful reprieve from walking in my neighborhood. Definitely worth the drive. Sang K.

55AMAZING!!! Unbelievable beautiful. Can’t wait to come back. Note: The calendar unfortunately let’s you book 1 hour slots but that is not enough time to get down to water and back. Just an FYI:) Renée M.

55We love visiting Robin's beautiful property! We enjoyed a leashed walk around the perimeter of the field since there is a crop planted and played in the trails and sand along the river. The water level was quite high this weekend and it seemed a bit dangerous for dogs that are ambitious swimmers. Blair G.

55Had a fantastic time at PaJo Ranch with my two dogs! Plenty of room to romp off-leash. The fields have been planted, so stay off that area. There is one house on the west side across a hedge of brambles, with a dog, but we had no trouble and they are a bit far away. We stayed on leash past that point. There is river access, but the water flow is high right now so no real beach, nd the flow is quite fast, FYI. There are a few short loops you can repeat near the river. The dogs ran and had a great time! Robin was very helpful, easy to communicate with, and quick to respond. She made sure there was no overlap with the previous or subsequent guests, which was great. Overall a great experience!Chance F.

55Really gorgeous spot and Robin is such a sweet, accommodating host We've been here several times and it's always incredible. We've seen a few people far off in the distance but otherwise we are completely alone which is exactly what we want. Absolutely love PaJo Ranch, I could come here every day.Susan D.

55Robin is very nice and gave me a full rundown on the property. It was quiet, peaceful and beautiful. The hike was comfortable as far as terrain. I have an older dog that is super active but she had an absolute blast on the hike and at the river. I have a wagon for her and took that along in case she got too tired. The only time we used it was in a patch where the grass was very high and I didn't want her going through the foxtails. We had a great time and I can't wait to come back and do it again.J Linn H.

55Second visit. We love this location!! 2 hours is easy to spend here. We drive most of the way to the river, stop to walk down some of the road by the field to enjoy the view. Walk down a heavily vegetated path to the river bank, bring a lawn chair and enjoy the river with the dogs!Lindy L.

55We loooved the ranch and have already booked another visit! Definitely need that 2 hrs minimum as there is lots to explore and you don’t want to feel rushed. It was a beautiful setting and the hostess really met us with the mostess. In addition to orienting us to the property, she also took the time to meet and greet my timid pup, who is working on introductions to strangers and really felt relaxed meeting her and getting to romp and sniff sniff sniff in this fun new place!Sara S.

FAQ about our Sammamish 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 can I find dog hiking trails in Sammamish?
There are 13 dog hiking trails in the Sammamish area. The most popular dog hiking trail is Alexandra's Private Dog Park In Issaquah. You can browse all of our dog hiking trails here.
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.
