55Great spot! Instructions provided were spot on. I recommend long pants/sleeves and sturdy boots, there were blackberry vines around (mostly going up the hill) and those suckers sting. This week has been pretty dry so it wasn't too muddy but there were still marshy areas. You could hear gunshots firing in the distance but it did not disturb us in the slightest. My buppy and I left happy!Ariel D.

55This was such a fun spot! The dogs had a wonderful time sniffing everything and chasing each other. It was nice for the humans to get to take a walk instead of just watching them play in a small area.
We found the super muddy spot(that the dogs loved) but there was plenty of other areas that weren’t really muddy if you didn’t want to get dirty.
I look forward to coming here again. Tammy P.

55I booked this at a last minute to give my dogs an outting on the way to a class in Woodinville. My 4 aussies and my firends 2 bcs had a great time blasting around. What I liked is that there was different areas to romp it. It was not all flat. There were hills to run up and down as well. We avoided the area that was too squishy for the humans. Not that the dogs cared they still went zooming down that trail. 😆 next time I will make sure I book more time so we can explore more of the trails.Jeanne S.

55Such a fun walk! Really feels like you are hiking. Lots of room to play fetch and several streams for the pups to drink water. Easy signs to follow. So beautiful! Sarah G.

55This is the coolest place you can get to without driving an hour out into the woods. The trails, the fields, the hills, even the area with the mud were all so much fun for my newly rescued German Shepard. Such a huge place we didn’t even see it all. Heard neighbors dogs barking and when we climbed the hill of all hills we found maybe a distant viewing point but the dog was sooo far away through sticker bushes and it’s own wooden fence that we had no problem even though simba is highly reactive with other dogs. This place is a relief and a joy and we can’t wait to come back. Kristyn S.

55This was a great spot for our dog! So much to explore and sniff, and also room to fetch. She even found a tennis ball at the entrance and kept track of it the whole time. It was pretty wet, she fell in big puddle, but all good stuff :)) Will definitely be back! It was like being in the woods in the middle of the city, total plus for us--Melissa V.

55My pup had such a great time here- we will definitely be going back. I appreciated the clear directions and parking/trail signage. We did hear some barking from neighbor dogs a couple of times that distracted my dog briefly, but it was far enough away that it wasn’t a problem. Marianna W.

55What a lovely trail walk. Jackson and I had a great time climbing a steep hill on one of the trails. Very secluded. It was nice that Jackson could just be a dog and wander in the woods. Definitely coming back! April M.

55This was our first visit and we really enjoyed it! Got some good cardio in on the hill climbs which was great. Very peaceful and quiet, except for some great birdsong. We captured a couple if identifiers of the songs. As we were driving out we did see a person with a dog walking on the road between the parking spot and the bridge - it shouldn't be a problem unless you park before the bridge to walk to the entrance to the site and your dog is reactive to people or dogs. We plan to include this in our regular rotation of Sniffspots to visit!June M.

55This was a great spot for our pup to explore. Plenty of different trails and clearings. Definitely has the potential to get quite muddy, but it wasn’t too bad while we were there today. Some steep hills if you’re into that, but there’s plenty of space to sniff and explore without intense climbing. The directions and signs were all very helpful. We had a great time here!Michelle N.

55This is a great spot! We kept our dogs on leash and had a wonderful adventure. Be sure you wear boots and appropriate clothing that can get dirty! There was a pretty muddy area that we only went a little ways before we turned around. The hills will give you and your pups a great workout! There was some barking dogs from neighbors that my reactive boy didn't like but we were able to focus him back to the adventure soon enough. We cut our adventure about 20 minutes short due to our senior girl was worn out with all the hill work. The only issue with this spot is other people that have used this spot were not very good about picking up poop. We will visit this spot again.Xena D.

FAQ about our Bainbridge Island 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 Bainbridge Island?
There are 21 dog hiking trails in the Bainbridge Island area. The most popular dog hiking trail is The Woods of Spadoni Hill. 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.
