55What an amazing spot! Perfect for hikers who want to walk with their dogs in forest park, but can’t because of dog reactivity. Directions and instructions for arrival were easy to follow. The trails are well maintained and well marked. Beautiful spot, I’ll be back! Lizzie F.

55Great spot! Multiple trails and a creek that runs through. Definitely gets muddy in the wet season so bring hiking boots to avoid slipping and a towel to clean off your dog. My dog loved it! Ciara K.

55We always have a blast here. So many hills to run up and tire my pup out on. It’s muddy which should be expected this time of year, but all of the branches and fallen trees have been cleared from the paths. Eric P.

55This is now one of our top Sniffspots in the area. Exactly as described and well maintained trails. The view of Mt. St. Helens was breathtaking! My Great Dane, Zephary, is still working on his recall, and this was a great place to train/practice. He had a blast and exhausted a bunch of energy. We will definitely be back again. Jacqui M.

55What a great visit. My chubby self got a great workout. Make sure in winter you wear good sho3s. Probably want hikers. I did slide down in a couple spots but we had so much fun. My boys loved the trails and raced back and forth. This was our first unfenced one, but 0 issues as lots of natural boundaries. Can't wait to come back . Would love to see this in spring and summer as well. Dina C.
