Dog walking in Morrilton

City Center

Right in the middle of the city, you will find the Nature Trail. The City Nature Trail is dog-friendly as long as you have a leash. This loop trail is paved, and there are benches to rest on as well as a pavilion to relax in. Along the trail, you will find water fountains, and doggie waste receptacles are also easy to find. There is a rule that you must stay on the trail. You can also check out pocket park while you're here. This is a quiet little park nestled in between two buildings which makes it just right after a nice walk.

Petit Jean State Park

Petit Jean State Park is THE place to bring your whole family for the pawfect adventure. You have plenty of options if you want to embark on a Fido-friendly camping adventure. Don't want to ruff it? No worries! Just rent a cabin -- they're dog-friendly. You can fish for your dinner or stop in and grab a meal at the restaurant. Dogs aren't allowed inside, but they are allowed on the patio, or you can call ahead for pick-up. The Rails-to-Trails Conservancy has established several trails in this park as well.

You are going to have to drive almost an hour to get to Murray Park Off-leash Area, but this furrific park is worth every minute of the drive! You can let your pup off their leash to make new fur friends. Just remember to follow the posted rules to keep the park fun for everyone. In the summer, there are pools where pups can have a splashin' good time, as well as water fountains. The downside is that the park doesn't have much grass, and it does tend to get rather muddy, especially when the pools are full. Bring a towel!
