The best dog friendly neighborhoods
in Stephens City

East Stephens City

It’s no secret dogs and parks are a perfect pair. Be your pup’s hero and treat her to an afternoon in Sherando Park. This park spans 330 acres, and has beautiful open spaces and lovely gardens. In addition to a large fishing pond, the park features three hiking trails. Clip on your dog’s leash and head out for some exercise. One of the trails circles the park and clocks in at 1.2 miles. The other two are .4 and .8 miles. You can either take a leisurely stroll or a brisk walk, whatever your pooch is in the mood for. Just be sure to give her a big drink of cold water when you are finished.

Central Winchester

If your pooch needs to burn some extra energy, head 10 miles north to Winchester and stop by the Jim Barnett Dog Park. Your four legged friend can check his leash at the gate, then dash around to his heart’s content. He’ll make new friends while getting some much needed exercise. There are separate sections for large and small dogs, benches for pet parents, and fresh drinking water for thirsty pups. This park does require a membership, but if you are just passing through, you can obtain a visitor’s pass. No bones about it, your canine buddy will have a fetching good time!

Boyce

Looking for a new place to take your pooch? Head 10 miles east of Stephens City to the nearby town of Boyce, and visit the Blandy Experimental Farm. This natural space also includes The State Arboretum of Virginia. Your furry BFF can choose from several trails in this unique location. Dogs must be leashed on the Native Plant Trail and Bridle Trail, but can roam off leash in other areas. Follow the .75 mile Oak Trail, 1 mile Pine Trail, 1.5 mile Willow Trail, or the 2 mile Maple Trail. As long as your pup is under immediate voice command, and doesn’t approach other animals or visitors, she can run free on these trails.

Fort Valley

If your pooch feels like communing with nature, plan a weekend trip to the Elizabeth Furnace Recreation Area. Located in Fort Valley, this natural forest displays the beauty of the Shenandoah Valley. Learn something new as you take your furry friend around the interpretive Charcoal Trail or Pig Iron Trail. They are both pretty short, but don’t worry, there are plenty of other hikes in the area. Check out the Tuscrora Trail, Signal Knob Trail, or the Sherman to Shaw Gap Loop. Spend the night in the Elizabeth Furnace Family Campground. Your pup will love relaxing by the campfire after a day on the trails.

Delaplane

Sky Meadows State Park is a 20 mile drive east of Stephens City. Situated in the Crooked Run Valley of Delaplane, this park is over 1,800 acres of woodlands and rolling pastures. It also has a historic farm and views of the Blue Ridge Mountains. Your four legged hiking buddy will be in heaven as you explore the 22 miles of trails. Trails range from under a half mile all the way up to 2.5 miles, so you can find one that suits your pup’s abilities and stamina. The park also has access to the famed Appalachian Trail. Make sure to pack enough water to keep your pal hydrated on this adventure!
