Wag! Walkers know Riverdale

Riverdale, Chicago is located on the city's far southeast side. The neighborhood is nestled between Beaubien Forest Preserve, Whistler Woods Forest Preserve, and Calumet West Shore and Gull Island. Much of the neighborhood is occupied by rail yards, landfills, and industrial sites but in addition to these industrial usages, you will also find a number of residential neighborhoods. Riverdale offers lots of beautiful walking possibilities that both you and your pet are sure to enjoy!

The area is loved by dog owners who flock to the neighboring forest reserves in the area to let their pups blow off some steam. Both are brimming with lots of interesting sights, smells, and textures for your pup to explore. Little Calumet River flows along the south side of the area and it is the perfect place for your pup to cool off after a long, hard walk. Just remember to keep your pup on the leash for safety. 

What is the terrain like in Riverdale?

Riverdale strikes the perfect balance between residential neighborhoods and industrial space. This means that it is able to offer an alternative from the densely populated inner-city neighborhoods. The residential areas are largely built up. Sturdy sidewalks and convenient amenities mean that all of your pup's needs are catered for. However, the vast neighboring forest preserves mean that nature is never far from your doorstep. With an abundance of sticks and space, there is no end to the number of games of fetch your pup can enjoy. 

Riverdale is largely flat which makes it a great place for those looking to enjoy a casual meander rather than an exhausting hike. However, the varied terrain means that you and your pet will be kept on your toes. From wetland to woodland, Riverdale is the perfect playground. There is no doubt that you and your pooch will love exploring all that Riverdale has to offer. 

How many greenways are there in Riverdale?

Riverdale is surrounded by lots of open, green spaces including Golden Gate Park, Kensington Marsh, Little Calumet Marsh, and Beaubien Woods. Beaubien Woods is a 279-acre plot and contains a mix of woodland, wetland, and prairie with Flatfoot Lake as the preserve's centerpiece. The woods can be enjoyed by all including families, anglers, dog owners, and nature enthusiasts. The grassy fields are the perfect place for dogs to stretch their legs, picnicking, and kite flying. The preserve is loved by dog owners making it a great place for you and your pup to meet old and new friends while the varied terrain offers lots of exciting things for your dog to explore and no two walks need be the same.

Golden Gate Park is another great place for you and your pup to explore. The small area comprises five acres but it is well-maintained and there are lots for your pup to discover!
