Stefanie's Private Dog Park In San Marcos

Partially Fenced

20 acres

"This field is huge! My dogs had an amazing time running around and exploring 😍 There is shade under the trees, and the part that wasn't fenced in wasn't an issue for us. If your dogs don't have solid recall, stick to the fenced side. The whole place is so big, you shouldn't have a problem getting a good amount of walking/running in, without coming too close to the un-fenced side. I walked around for about 2 miles, and I'm guessing my dogs probably did twice that 😆 The host was nice and allowed extra time, because I took a wrong turn coming there and was late to my booked time. We will definitely be back."

Melissa's Private Dog Park In Anza

Partially Fenced

Located at my home of 5 acres in beautiful Anza, California. Mountain area. Hot in the Summer and cold in the Winter. A beautiful spot to stop at to let your dogs stretch their legs as you travel along Highway 371. My home is located not too far off of Highway 371, I promise!! I would take Howard Road (signs posted) then to Cave Rock Road. My address is posted right on the gate in big black numbers. Pull in, park where you would like. Someone will greet you shortly. Thank you for considering my spot.

What people say about dog hiking trails around Alpine, California

Judy G.

August 2022

We love it here and so does our dog. Lots of shade, easy walking path, beautiful scenery, and thoughtful amenities (trash cans, hose for spraying off, plenty of parking). And what a treat to find a fresh water lake that allows dogs here in So Cal!

Melissa M.

July 2023

My pups had so much fun. What a great place to spend time with your dog. Definitely going back. Already booked a spot for tomorrow. 5 ⭐️

October 2022

Renting this spot out for mine and two out of our 4 dogs birthdays. Will definitely be back! The property was a pot of fun for both humans and dogs, plenty of spots to sit, swings, hammocks, and the host let me use one of the paddle boats when I asked. 100% will be back soon 😊

I visit Taylor pond 1-2 times a week to do water training with my Retriever. The water there is the cleanest in so cal, there’s Tules/bulrushes in one corner and even a couple of docks for dogs to leap off. I’ve never had any major issues with other dogs though there is a boarding facility there.

This is a hidden gem! Took my boy here to enjoy the view and get some time away. He loved the walk around the pond, finding stray balls and seeing the ducks.

Mackenzie S.

January 2024

Great location! Dogs had a great time. Just be aware that Airbnb guests may come & go through the main gate, so make sure your dog either has good recall, or you can grab them quickly (I had a new foster with me for his first outing and I learned a few valuable things 😂).

Dawn K.

Great spot! The dogs loved all the space and exploring the pond. Us humans loved being surrounded by nature. We will definitely return.

Fantastic! A one-of-kind spot in SD. My pup loved hoping in the pond. Very secure and friendly to communicate with. Highly recommended!

February 2024

I loved this place, the only concern was the amount of people in and out. My dog is friendly with everyone, however, can be reactive to unknown dogs. I was on edge all the time wondering if another dog would pop out of nowhere. We did enjoy this place, not as private as I thought it would be.

Easy to find. Fully fenced. Super sweet host. Safe area. Tons of seating around the pond. Road around pond perfect for walk. Towels, water, chairs in shade. Can’t ask for anything more! Best sniffspot I’ve been to! My girls are all sleeping hard after such a fun play date.

Li T.

December 2023

We liked it! There’s a lot to see and do here, although the 5 acres is a lot of space! Doggy in the water was new for us, and lots of cool balls and toys around to play with if you forgot your own. Easily accessed in Poway!

Awesome place. Much bigger than I thought. Clean, fenced, a beautiful little oasis. My dogs and I had a blast. Thank you so much

Our dogs love the the openness so they can explore around the pond. And they love walking along the sides of the pond in the water

We absolutely love it! Plenty spots where you can just sit and watch your dog. Gorgeous view!! Thank you so much for letting us adventure your property!

Fiorela M.

We had a great visit to Taylors Pond. The dogs had a great time exploring the pond and the surrounding areas. Will definitely come back again.

Stephanie W.

January 2024

Lovely spot with a walking path around the pond!! Our dogs loved getting to dip their toes in and run in the open spaces! Just make sure your dog has good recall because there were cars, kids, and people fishing in the space (completely not an issue for us!).

January 2024

This was the first time we have ever used Sniff Spot. What a wonderful experience. Beautiful location, so peaceful. Our pup loved it 🐶🐾

Amy d.

January 2024

My fur babies had an amazing time here. Plenty of space to run full speed and play. They loved swimming in the pond! Off road parking is easy and plenty of space. David is friendly and asked how things went before we left. I really appreciate that. Definitely coming back. Recommended to my friends right after I left.

Robert B.

January 2024

This is a great spot if your dog likes to swim. Easy to find and easy to park. Wish I had invited a couple friends with dogs as well to play together.

Maggie K.

January 2024

What a great experience for my three dogs today! The host happened to be out when I arrived early and he was very helpful with my pitbull mixes. They range from 1 year to 15 years old. Just a wonderful day all around.

FAQ About Alpine 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 Alpine?

There are 11 dog hiking trails in the Alpine area. The most popular dog hiking trail is Mount San Miguel Community Park Dog Park. 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.

How much do Sniffspot hiking trails cost?

Dog hiking trails in the Alpine area range from $4.0 and $. The least expensive dog hiking trail is Melissa's Private Dog Park In Anza. The most expensive dog hiking trail is Mount San Miguel Community Park Dog Park. Each host sets their own price, so you can check the price on the specific Sniffspot dog park listing.
