Muddy creek 2 Acre Fully Fenced Private Dog Park In Clemmons

Partially Fenced
10 acres

Freshly fenced with open grass for running and playing. Also have some wooded area with taller grass and growth for exploring. Lots of shade trees also. Outside the fence is an additional 8+ acres to explore. If you wish to go down to the creek then only enter on far right side behind the fence. The path to the water is challenging as it is woodsy and steep. There is a knotted rope to help you get up a short bank from the water’s edge

Sally's 30 Acre Partially Fenced Private Dog Park In Mount Airy

Partially Fenced
30 acres

The perimeter of my property is fenced so you know you’re still on my property. However, it is triple strand so dogs could go through it. We do have chickens and ducks that free roam. We also have other animals that will be contained in the barnyard behind the barn. Drive straight down driveway towards RV. There will be a gate straightahead and another gate to the left. Park anywhere there and use either gate. The gate to the left leads to that big field and the creek runs the length of it. The other gate leads to the back and crosses over the creek. Walk up there just a bit and you will see a path to the left. It goes up to another open field.

Evelyn's 10 Acre Unfenced Water Front Private Dog Park outside Burlington

Unfenced
10 acres

PROPERTY IS UNDER CONTRACT TO CLOSE MAY 30. We have truly loved having all our guests enjoy the space and hope between now and then you take advantage as much as you can. We have also shared this with the new owners in the hopes they continue to allow dogs this special retreat. Thank you to everyone for making our place your special place. ❤️ 10 acres bordered by active electric fenced in cow and horse pasture. Lower property offers lake views and animal access from shore (people are not allowed to wade). 5+ acres are mowed, and an additional 2+ acres of trails and foot paths. Quiet and serene location far from roadways or neighbors. Let your dog run leash free or bring your GPS, wireless electric fencing system with you, and relax while your dog roams and discovers. We are animal friendly, but dogs will be inside or gone, and cats will either be inside or find trees while your pet enjoys the space. We do have a pool that is not dog friendly.

Slys Peace Trail

Partially Fenced
10 acres

Located in the foothills, the Slys Peace trail was created for dog stimulation. The trail starts at the lower end of the pasture and follows the creek meandering through a rhododendron forest. Situated at the base of 100 acres of wooded ridge land, the hike offers a wilderness experience customized to your comfort zone. There are multiple trails to accommodate your level of exercise. The full experience will require crossing the creek multiple times and is recommended for those with hiking experience. Trails are easy to follow with multiple exits that lead out to the pasture. This is dog heaven. Let your dog be a dog. To locate the gate entrance watch for the Giant metal horse. His nose points the way. Follow the fenceline a few hundred feet where you will find the gate just before the power line easement. There is now a large Sniff Spot sign securely attached.

Frequently asked questions about Winston-Salem dog hiking trails

What do private dog hiking trails in Winston-Salem offer that public parks don't?

Private dog hiking trails in Winston-Salem 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 Winston-Salem can't guarantee any of this. With 15 options, you get predictable, controlled environments perfect for your dog's specific needs.

Can I find fully fenced private dog parks in Winston-Salem?

Yes! Most of Winston-Salem's 15 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. Winston-Salem listings include fencing photos so you can verify security.

When can puppies start visiting dog hiking trails in Winston-Salem?

Puppies can visit Winston-Salem 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 Winston-Salem trainers specifically use dog hiking trails for puppy development.

How do I find private dog hiking trails near me in Winston-Salem?

Browse Winston-Salem's 15 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 Winston-Salem listing shows photos, reviews, exact location, and instant availability. Local favorite Bushel Barks Private Dog Park is particularly popular among Winston-Salem dog owners.

Can I rent dog hiking trails in Winston-Salem by the hour?

Yes! All 15 dog hiking trails in Winston-Salem 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 Winston-Salem dog owners rent weekly for consistent, safe exercise.

What's the difference between Sniffspot dog hiking trails and public dog parks in Winston-Salem?

The biggest difference is privacy and control. Public dog parks in Winston-Salem mean sharing space with unknown dogs and owners. That means you can't control who shows up or how they behave. Sniffspot's 15 Winston-Salem 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 Winston-Salem?

Yes! Winston-Salem has climate-controlled indoor dog hiking trails perfect for extreme weather, rainy days, or year-round exercise. Indoor Winston-Salem 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 Winston-Salem weather. Filter by "indoor" to see options.

How do Winston-Salem dog hiking trails help with dog training?

Winston-Salem 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.
