You can’t go wrong spending some outdoor time with your pup, and what better place to take them than a park? Northwood Park, in the city of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, is a great option whether you have a couple minutes or all day to spend! Pack up your pup and get ready for some fresh air and fun!
Finding this park is easy! Head to the Frankford area of the city and you will see the park on either side of Foulkrod Street. This road bisects the park, but makes for an easy place to find a space to leave your car! Grab your pup and head out!
With 5 acres of land to explore, the only thing you need to decide is what to do first! Let’s assume your furry friend will want to take a walk. You can stroll along the paved paths that are popular here. Fido will love the ease of these walking paths as they are easy on the paws! Benches dot the landscape and are strategically placed for viewing. Many are located underneath the mature trees which are a welcome relief from the hot, Philadelphia sun. Go off-road and let them roll and romp in the lush green grass, which is plentiful here!
Before you leave, be sure to check out the park’s other amenities, which include tennis courts and a lovely playground for the area’s children. There are restrooms which are provided for your convenience. All you will need to bring with you is Fido’s leash, which must always remain clipped to his collar, clean up mitts to ensure this park remains pup-friendly, and plenty of bottled water to share.
Visiting Northwood Park will be a great addition to you and your pup’s day. Head over there today!
