We can’t use our backyard due to some repair work being done. This Sniffspot is a lifesaver!

Other reviews are very accurate. It can be very slippery. We went for a hiking feel for a walk, and it was perfect. Trails are well marked and maintained. Beautiful bench and views!!

Absolutely beautiful! I’ve only gone once so far but I definitely plan on coming back :) A little bit slippery but definitely worth it, my dog loved being able to run around freely and explore.

Kathy A.

March 2023

Just as other reviews said, it is a bit slippery especially with the recent rain but we absolutely loved it! There’s plenty of place to explore and we will want to come back to try the other trails. We didn’t run into any people or domestic animals which was great for my reactive pup.

we had a great time exploring. it’s a little muddy right now with all the rain, but/and you can tell that the folks who live here put a lot of effort and care into building and tending the trails. i hope to come back soon. the farm stand was also real sweet.

A lovely walk in the woods with a nice view on the upper trail out to the Columbia River. A little muddy as are all trails in Oregon in March! All trails well marked with some charming benches made from recycled pallets, it appears, (love that re-use ethic). We will be back!

Merrill F.

March 2023

A bit slippy in the rainy season but it’s a great spot with lots of trails and outdoor space for the dogs to run.

Karli and Evan C.

March 2023

We have a reactive pup and this Sniffspot was nice for him to have the opportunity to be off leash and explore without the possibility of another dog or person triggering him! We all had a great time on the trails. It’s muddy like the other reviews say so wear shoes you don’t mind getting dirty. Also they have a farm stand so we were able to purchase fresh eggs!

Ari B.

March 2023

I’ve been wanting to hike in forest park with my dog for about 6 months but never found a spot without people/other dogs. It was amazing to be able to tromp around in the woods without worrying we’d see anyone else. Avocado loved it & of course found the creek and walked right in. We will absolutely be back. Note that it’s a wooded trail in the PNW in March so it was definitely muddy (worst on the creek trail) but we survived :)

Kim K.

March 2023

This property is beautiful! It is also such a well marked spot. I wish everyone would make it so clear. Always knew where I could go and where I couldn't. The animals (I think chickens and goats) are all behind safe fencing. The inclines are no joke. Definitely counts for leg day and cardio! As others mentioned, it's super muddy right now. We really loved it here and will be back.

Talia R.

Your own private hiking trail! This spot was amazing—so well maintained and the host clearly put a ton of effort into creating a unique experience. Be sure to wear trail shoes if it’s been rainy and a towel if your dog is the type to hops in the creek. Go for an hour, it’s worth having the time to explore. There’s also a farm stand on site with eggs and such which was such a cool surprise!

Karen H.

March 2023

First time out and we enjoyed exploring the offerings. Be sure to scan the QR code at the "trailhead" and watch for the ribbons, which were a big help. Much of the property is sloped, so prepare for hills and ample mud in the rainy season. We found that one hour was the right amount of time to explore.

Heather D.

My pup and I had a fantastic time exploring the trails! It is like being in your own private Forest Park! The trails are clearly marked, and there was even some snow left over from the night before! We can't wait to come back!

Tomlin P.

February 2023

This place is a reactive dog paradise! My dog had a blast running, sniffing, and exploring the steep, but well marked trails. The stream and mud simply added to her enjoyment! Plus, it was nice for neither of us to have to worry about seeing other dogs. We had a wonderful time!

FAQ About Hood River 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.
