   The Corona neighborhood features a favorite local dog park known as Louis Simeone Park, and is only a mile from East Elmhurst. Packed with dense trees and a mixture of vibrant grass, sand and paved trails, the park can either be the best option for an afternoon stroll, or a lively game of fetch in the open area. Dogs must remain on leash while playing. Afterwards, head to Leo's Latticini right down the street for affordable deli sandwiches and dog-friendly outdoor seating.

   Only 3 Miles away, the Flushing neighborhood is a great place to go for East Elmhurst dog-lovers. For those looking for an enclosed space, Lawrence Triangle Dog Park is the top pick for free-roaming pups. The park is fenced off and allows off-leash dogs to run around safely, and provide clean-up stations, benches and trash bins for the human's benefit. Fido may want some more room to run about though, which is why Kissena Park would be the next best option. Kissena Park allows all on-leashed dogs to enjoy the .75 miles of trails, different tree species and the scenic views of Kissena Lake. Dogs are even allowed near the lakefront to enjoy fishing!

   #3 Willets Point

   Anyone who has visited the Willets Point neighborhood of Queens knows it's small, mostly made up of shops and businesses. But as the neighbor of East Elmhurst, and only 2 miles away, it offers the closest activity for Fido and you. That activity is the Flushing Bay Promenade, a waterfront greenway that makes up more than 1.5 miles of trail on the northern edge. The path is welcome to walkers, cyclists, and dog-walkers with leashed-dogs. The track offers not only serene views of Flushing Bay and lush fields encompassing the greenway, but also clean-up stations, water fountains, trash bins, and benches!

   #4 Brown Park

   Brown Park is one of the most densely packed neighborhoods in Queens, and only 5 miles away from East Elmhurst. Despite being so populated, the community still has plenty of parks to offer, like Harvey Park. This open area provides any leashed dog the room it needs to run around, with plenty of trees surrounding it for great privacy. If that doesn't suit your dog's needs, head over to Memorial Field of Flushing, a place with paved, shaded trails that make for a walk no matter time of day, and enclosed recreational baseball fields and tennis courts that allow dogs to come in and roam freely.
