Dog parks in Denver, Colorado
Denver has designated off-leash enclosures across several neighborhoods. Dogs must be leashed when entering and leaving an enclosure, and off-leash play belongs only inside marked areas. Confirm current rules and closures with the city before you visit.
Railyard Dog Park
LoDo, near 19th Avenue and Little Raven Street. A fenced downtown dog park with sandy ground cover, shaded areas, benches and water access reported by Visit Denver. Check conditions and posted hours.
Fuller Dog Park
Near East 29th Avenue and Franklin Street, behind Manual High School. A fenced neighborhood dog park; bring water in case on-site supplies are unavailable.
Berkeley Lake Dog Park
Near West 46th Avenue and Sheridan Boulevard. A fenced dog area west of the lake. Bring drinking water; lake access is not available from inside the dog park.
Kennedy Dog Park
Near Hampden Avenue and South Dayton Street. Visit Denver describes separate areas for high- and low-energy dogs. Shade is limited, so cooler hours and your own water are sensible.
Cherry Creek State Park Dog Off-Leash Area
Southeast of Denver in Aurora. This 100+ acre regional off-leash area is not completely fenced and requires applicable state-park and dog-area passes. Read the access, pass and handler guide before you go.
Before you go
Denver's dog-park rules require dogs to be supervised and under control. Dogs should be leashed until inside the enclosure, waste must be picked up, and closures can occur for maintenance. Regional state parks have separate access fees and rules.
