55Great sniffspot! The fencing between properties is secure and it's very clear where the property line. Tons of room to throw a chuck it without feeling close to the road.Madeline M.

55Even on a very cold and windy day this sniffspot provided a wonderful place for our three dogs to run, play and sniff. They couldn’t have been happier — and so were we. Thank you Valerie for sharing your fields with us and our dogs. Super clean and inviting!Catherine K.

55Our girl Maeve had the absolute BEST time exploring this spot. It was great for an early morning in February, and I can’t imagine how incredible it will be when the weather gets nicer. It was also so nice getting the lowdown of the property from the hosts for our first visit. We will be back!Nicole F.

55This place is a gem 💎💎 my pup lives in the city but she dislikes all the loud noises and commotion. She came Alive at this spot- ran around like crazy and had so much. The property is absolutely beautiful and we were so lucky to be there on a sunny day. The field offers a lake to play in, Mt Hood views and so much room to run around. The river spot is always delightful. We will def be back!! Page W.

55Absolutely perfect and just what we were looking for. A big open field with lots of room for the pooch to run around and explore (and lots of fun bird-watching for the humans, too)! We didn't go over to the river this time, but we'll definitely check it out next time!Kellie P.

55Easy to access and find, very friendly and attentive host, great large field for puppy romping in various terrain. Brought my 9 month old pup here to work on distance recall and it was perfect. Multnomah channel access was easy and great for pup to swim and explore.Valerie P.

55Not entirely fenced in, doesn’t matter much when there’s so much room to roam. Our dog got a kick out of all the holes and trails to smell and was quite intrigued by the neighbor cows. We’ll definitely be back!Kelsey C.

55Beautiful space!! Easy access to the river, Jessica, Valerie's daughter was super sweet and welcoming. Even helped me decide if the roads were clear enough for the 45 min drive out there after the snow this week. 10/10 will make the trip out again! Already making plans for this summer to take our kayaks!! Jenell H.

55Such a great place to relax and explore with my pup! There are two sides - one is the open acreage near horses and cows, and the other crosses a narrow road to the riverside. It was great to have a meeting in person to get the lay of the land.. Very welcoming!! I will definitely be back. Alexandria K.

55Easy to find, and the host is super sweet! Gave me a lay of the land before we set off. Easy to navigate around the property, and my dog got to see cows for the first time! He was uninterested, but I loved it! A wonderful space and fantastic hosts. We hope to be back in the summer and take advantage of their water access!
Thanks for letting us use your space! Heather D.

FAQ about our Cathlamet 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.
How much do Sniffspot hiking trails cost?
Dog hiking trails in the Cathlamet area range from $4.0 and $4.0. The least expensive dog hiking trail is Hilly and large for a great workout!. The most expensive dog hiking trail is Hilly and large for a great workout!. Each host sets their own price, so you can check the price on the specific Sniffspot dog park listing.
