Confirmed from Del Norte Dog Park's own listing, the park or land manager's website, and runner reviews. Blank cells mean we could not verify that fact — we would rather say "not reported" than invent one. There is no Easy / Moderate / Hard rating on this page on purpose: a one-word difficulty score tells you nothing about whether a trail suits your run. Surface, distance, shade and hours do.

🌳 shaded & cool 4 mentions

“Also the only place for people to sit or tha has any kind of shade is in the middle one.”

Nice big and open park with three separate dog areas, all have fun agility play equipment in them. Cons: only the middle area has water available for dogs to drink, but it hasn't been working in the month we've been going. Also the only place for people to sit or tha has any kind of shade is in the middle one.

★★★★☆ — Blake , Feb 2020

Starting off The google directions to this park are incorrect. this is part of the del Norte park complex , you must enter threw the parks entrance on North Grimes not broom Dr.. Broom is a residential road not connected to park .

★★★★★ — R , Aug 2018

I love this dog park, and so do my dogs! It's so spacey and has 3 sections. The little agility runs are fun too. It is well maintained, but owners don't pick up after their dogs and you have to watch where you step.

★★★★★ — Tiffany , Mar 2019

Nice dog park with 3 separate grassy areas. One for small, medium and large dogs. Shaded area for sitting, water fountain for your dogs to drink out of. Really nice place.

Trail conditions & character

What this trail is actually like underfoot and overhead, taken from its own listing and from reviews. Each one links to every other trail with the same character. Busy or quiet is reported as a plain fact, not a plus or a minus — a runner heading out alone at dawn often wants company on the path, and someone running intervals wants an empty one.

🐕 Dog-friendly 59 mentions

“Starting from the far back, They have a 3 section dog park with spacing for large and small dogs and a decent sized communal part in the center.”
