Dog walking in Lansdale

Wissahickon Park Gardens

Memorial Park in the Wissahickon Park Gardens neighborhood of Lansdale is a great place to go for a late night walk. This park's lights stay lit 24/7! With bright tennis courts and basketball courts, this park is great for people who have a less than traditional schedule. If your dog is fond of a midnight walk, this is the park to go to. This large park allows leashed dogs only. There isn't as much green space, as some other parks, but the lights and paths make up for it. What it may lack in doggie amenities, it more than makes up for with accessibility and hours.

Willowyck

Church Road Park in Willowyck is a tiny park tucked into a residential neighborhood. It doesn't have much in the way of attractions, but it is a beautiful, green space to walk your dog. If you're looking for something with a bit more to do, head to Hancock Street Park. This park is set back from the road, and consists mainly of wooded paths. These are perfect for exploring with a curious dog! There are other things in the park. Hancock Street Park has a small playground, picnic tables, and a few open sports fields. Bring a doggie bowl to help your pup drink from the fountains!

Downtown Lansdale

York and Susquehanna Park is a great place to take your dog for a weekday walk. This park gets overrun with children on the weekends and after school. If your dog can't stop wagging his tail when he sees humans, this could be a great park! Otherwise you're going to want to stick to walking the paths during the off hours. Hungry? Downtown Lansdale can fix that! Stove and Tap has bottled, canned, and draft beer and an eclectic menu from burgers to yellowtail skewers. They also have a dog-friendly patio! You should also check out Round Guys. They focus on delicious comfort food of the meat and cheese varieties, such as chili mac and cheese and pulled pork sandwiches!

Wynwood Estates

Fellowship Park is perfect for a slow day outdoors. Start with a brisk walk through the park's paved paths. They aren't long, but they wind through the park and give you a great tour. If you're bringing the whole family, you may want to stop off at the tennis courts, playground, or basketball court. Dogs don't care about team sports, but they do love to people watch! If your dog is the kind to wag his tail in a crowd, this is the park for him. Finish up by resting on one of the benches scattered throughout.

Upper Gwynedd

The Whites Road Park in Upper Gwynedd is a community gathering point. It has an outdoor stage that frequently hosts music performances. Dogs are allowed to attend so long as they stay on leash--and out of the spotlight! The rest of the time, the park makes a great place to explore. There are several hills in the park, making it a slightly more challenging location for a walk. The park also has sports fields, a small play area, and picnic areas. It's large enough to make it a great place to work energy out of a dog. It's also still small enough that a walk doesn't turn into a hike unless you want it to!
