55This is a beautiful spot, with a meadow and streams to play in and lots of fun little trails. We were there for 90 minutes, and we did not get bored! You will initially pass through a field with some cows, a goat, and turkeys, so be prepared if your dog has a strong prey drive, as mine does. Also keep in mind that there is a quiet road that runs along the top of the property, and there is no fence between the property and the road. I mention this for those whose dogs might not be good about staying out of roads (or who want to chase cars, as mine does!). I would highly recommend this Sniffspot, and I'm looking forward to visiting again! Sara E.

55Such a gem of a place. The hosts were amazing. John greeted us when we arrived and showed us around. We loved the trails and creeks. As a bonus, my dog was able to work on some impulse control and arousal around goats, bunnies, and roosters. We can’t wait to visit again. Meadow J.

55John was so nice! One of our dogs can be reactive to smaller animals and John was very understanding and helpful in making sure our pups had the best experience possible. The farm and land are GORGEOUS. Our dogs had an amazing time running around and exploring. We will definitely be coming back often! Izzy W.

55John was so nice and the property was amazing! We could barely keep up with the dogs they just loved the fact they could roam without a leash on! Their favorite part was playing in the creek! So much detail is being put into this sniff spot we would definitely love to come back!Danielle W.

55The perfect doggy playground! Gorgeous property with a well-maintained network of forested trails to explore, creeks to splash in, and some grassy flat areas to zoom around.
Note that to get to the off-leash area from the main/front entrance, you'll need to walk your leashed dogs past a bunch of (very friendly) farm animals. Super cool to see, but it feels like running the gauntlet for me with excited, prey-driven, and strong sled dogs. But they have a new parking area at the back of their property now which avoids having to walk past the farm animals.
Also, the property is very sloped, and can be tiring to walk up and down. Wear good shoes--if you visit after a very heavy rain (as we did), some places may be muddy.
The hosts are super kind people who obviously put a ton of effort into maintaining their property. We're looking forward to visiting again!Sherry H.

55Took my 2 dogs here today & they had a BLAST! John greeted us & gave us a tour of the property right when we arrived. There are so many fun little trails to explore, as well as a creek for the pups to play in. One of my dogs had never seen goats before & I wasn’t sure how she would react, but John let me know there is a separate access point where you do not have to walk through the animals’ pasture. This place is beautiful & is out new favorite hang out spot! Breanne D.

55This is an amazing place to visit. John and his wife were the best in making you feel warm and welcome. Our dogs have never seen any farm animals and there animals were great towards our doodles. I would definitely come back and our doodles loved sniffing and running around without a leash. Awesome! 👍😍Jacqueline M.

55We visited for the second time and are in love with this spot. More than plenty of room for the dogs to run and multiple trails to explore. And the farm animals are so fun to see. Beautiful property. Myra M.

55This was our second time visiting John and Stephanie's beautiful spot. Our first visit was with my old dog and three energetic young pup friends, but today we brought a dog even older than mine. I can say now with certainty that the spot offers something for people and dogs of all ages and energy levels. Lots of sniffs to take in, trails to meander, and creeks to splash through. Today we also made time to picnic on the cabin's front porch. Just lovely. Aubbie B.

55Just when I had thought this was the most beautiful nature trail, SPRING made it even more amazing! A scene from a magical fairytale 🧚♀️ with birds chirping and everything 💕 The ultimate Sniffspot experience! Biggie of course just let loose and ran around exploring. It was very clean, not one poop in sight 😄 The poop bucket was very convenient and easy to find! Very safe and the mossy/grass ground made his paws very happy 🐾 I love the cute signs, bridges, and all the quirky little details 🤗 So thankful that John and Stephanie are willing to share the space they put so much work in to all the wild babies to play and explore 🐶 Thanks for the wonderful experience every time. We all enjoyed it so much, not just Biggie 🤪Thu N.

FAQ about our Maple Valley 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 Maple Valley area range from $6.0 and $6.0. The least expensive dog hiking trail is Lab Livin. The most expensive dog hiking trail is Lab Livin. Each host sets their own price, so you can check the price on the specific Sniffspot dog park listing.
