The best dog friendly neighborhoods
in Platte City

Northeast Platte City

Platte Falls Conservation Area in Platte City is a spectacular 2,366-acre area where you can bring your pup for a trail walk through the woods and along the nine miles of river running through the park. This is a diverse landscape, covering both marshland and forest, and there is always plenty of wildlife to spot, including otters, ducks and rabbits. For this reason, keep your pup leashed for his safety and that of the local fauna. The river offers many aquatic activities as well, and your water pup will love a little float down the river on board a canoe or boat with you! There is plenty of parking and restroom facilities here, but bring everything you need for the day, such as water, food, cleanup bags, bug spray and sunscreen.

Northwest Platte City

Platte Ridge Park in the northern section of Platte City is 215 acres of beautiful parkland, not far out of the town centre. The lake and well-kept grass areas provide a lovely place to stop for a while and enjoy a snack, or go for an on-lead walk and enjoy panoramic views of Platte County. For the serious walkers, there is a 5k grass cross country trail with mileage markers every half mile to really get those legs moving. Fishing is permitted in the pond, and a playground will keep the kids occupied as well. Dogs are permitted here, but keep your pet leashed at Platte Ridge Park and always clean up any mess he leaves behind.

Weston State Park

Weston Bend State Park in neighbouring Weston is a huge state park covering 1,133 acres that includes a 1.75 acre free dog park! The dog park has separate areas for big and little dogs, benches for you to sit at, waste disposal facilities and a doggie water fountain. Outside the dog park, your pup will need to go back on the lead, but there is so much to see. Eight trails offer scenic views of the forest and Missouri River, varying in difficulty from the easy 0.2 mile Bear Creek Trail, to the more rugged 1.25-mile West Ridge Trail. For a challenge, take on the much longer 3.25 Mile Weston Bluffs Trail. Picnic areas are dotted throughout the park for when you are both ready for a little rest.

Southeast Leavenworth

For some more off-lead action, head over to Waggin’ Tails Dog Park in Leavenworth, a 13 mile drive southwest of Platte City, just over the state border into Kansas. This six-acre dog park is double-gated, fully fenced and offers separate areas for big dogs and little dogs to keep everyone safe and playing happily. There are waste disposal bags available, and a water fountain is in operation over the summer period. The well-kept, free park has plenty of benches for you to sit while you supervise, and shady trees to enjoy when the weather is warm. Your pup will love testing his skills on the agility equipment dotted around the play area too.

Tiffany Springs

The 838-acre Tiffany Springs Park in Kansas City, 13 miles south of Platte City, is another glorious green space to get out and about in the fresh air with your pup and escape suburbia for a while. Keep your dog leashed here, as there are lots of creatures that call this place home, such as deer, raccoons and many species of birds. The creeks provided an interesting walk and many more things to see on your travels. Restrooms are available on site, and there is plenty of parking and open grassed space that gives you room to spread out for a picnic. The park is very close to the airport, so keep a watch for planes coming in and out!
