Kelli was a great walker for my senior collie! She was considerate of my dog's elderly quirks and kept me updated throughout the walk. It was so nice knowing my sweet girl was being taken care of!

The best dog friendly neighborhoods
in Golden

North Foothills

Just below the North Foothills neighborhood is the Dog Park at Tony Grampsas. This fenced-in, off-leash dog park is housed within the Grampsas Memorial Complex, which is also home to an archery range and baseball field. If your dog is the adventurous sort, there’s a creek within the park that he can play in, which is also great for cooling off after all that running around! It’s recommended that you bring your own water, as fresh water isn’t available at the park. Feel free to explore the rest of the park; just make sure to use a leash when you leave the dog park!

Downtown

While Downtown Golden doesn’t have a dog park, it does have a fun park for you and your dog to enjoy! Lions Park is a spacious park where you and your dog can go for a walk and socialize with other dogs; just make sure you have a leash, as one is required. If you’re looking for something a bit more scenic, take your dog for a walk on the Colorado Trail! This trail is nearly 500 miles long, but it does have an access point in Golden. Make sure to bring a leash, some good shoes, and plenty of water for both you and your dog.

Windy Saddle Park

Windy Saddle Park is a dream for someone with a pooch who loves going for walks. Beaver Brook Trail is an 11.5-mile trail, and while it’s difficult and has a steep incline, the views are well worth it. Don't forget to bring your camera! Your dog is welcome to join you on this trail, so long as he’s on a leash. Locals advise watching out for local wildlife, as the trail seems to be a hotspot for it. Make sure to bring along lots of water for you and your four-legged friend!

Golden Gate Canyon

Golden Gate Canyon State Park has numerous trails for you and your pooch to explore, so grab Fido’s leash, some water, and some good running shoes, and get out there! This park has over 36 miles of trails, and your pet is allowed on all of them; just make sure to have a leash that’s no longer than six feet long. Locals advise watching out for wildlife, as it’s prevalent in the park. If you’re feeling adventurous, bring along some camping gear and stay the night; contact the campgrounds for details.

Western Lakewood

Located about 20 minutes southeast of Golden is Lakewood, where you’ll find Forsberg-Iron Spring Dog Park. This off-leash, fenced-in dog park features plenty of room for your pooch to run around, but there’s more. The park also features agility equipment so that your dog can practice his skills or just be silly with his pawesome new friends! Locals rave about the beautiful views the park provides, so make sure to snap some pictures while you’re in the park! Water is available on site for both you and Fido, as are benches and picnic tables. Feel free to explore the rest of the park; just make sure to bring a leash.
