55This spot was perfect. My dog is reactive and has a high prey drive so this was my first time being able to let her off leash in the woods. She loved it, and I loved seeing her so happy. The host was super sweet, accommodating, and flexible. The parking area is near an enclosure with goats/donkeys, and I wasn’t sure how my dog would react, but I was able to angle the car in a way that she never even noticed them. And it’s far enough from the actual spot that I didn’t have to worry about her seeing them once we were inside. All in all, it’s well worth the hour drive and I can’t wait to become a regular!Francie J.

55Our 2 dogs, we adopted from a rescue organization, had the BEST time at My Favorite Farm! They loved to explore off of leash. The grounds were clean and very easy to navigate. The creek was a special treat for our dogs. To see the joy in our dogs off leash was amazing! This spot is on our must come back list!Diane G.

55Luna had a great time at this sniffspot! Detailed instructions were provided beforehand, signs at the spot were helpful also! There are several cleared trails you can explore. To get to the creek it is a pretty steep drop off in most spots, might be difficult for smaller pups. There were wide open fields perfect for playing ball. Wear boots if you plan on exploring!

55Absolutely beautiful! My dogs loved it! My 12yr old pup had a blast. He walked the whole place fence to fence and loved having such a huge place to explore. Lol he had no problem walking waaaay ahead of us and showing us where the trails were. I had a minor issue getting in but the situation was addressed immediately and the owner was more than accommodating. Definitely recommend! This may be our new spot!Jasmine S.

55Our pups had THE BEST TIME! It was also so nice to see them running and playing while not worrying about them getting out. I have searched for a large property that is FULL FENCED to take them to and I am so happy we finally found it! We will be back weekly to let our pups get some much needed energy out and take some decompression walks on the trails! This spot was perfect and communication was amazing, it was a breeze getting in and out! HIGHLY RECOMMEND! Kasey H.

55Def our favorite sniffspot so far. Wide open field for plenty of running, and some nice trails through the woods. It was super peaceful and fun for our husky. Def will be coming back! Only thing you need to watch out for is some spider webs on the trails. Just keep your eyes up so you don’t run through them. Definitely recommend this spot 👍🏼Gustavo D.

55We thoroughly enjoyed our outing at the 7 acres in Woodstock. There are so many things for the dogs to see and smell. The fence is very secure and I did not worry about the dogs at all. We will be back!Terri E.

55Another great visit to Joy’s spot! Plenty of open space for dogs who like to play fetch and also wooded trails for dogs who prefer to explore. Maybe we just didn’t fully explore the first time but seems like even more trails were added. Luna is already snuggled up snoozing on the couch after her bath so I’d consider it a successful visit!

55We had an amazing Sunday afternoon at this Sniffspot. We felt completely safe letting our pup off leash since the property is fully fenced. The area has a nice trail to follow and a good open area to play fetch. We’ll definitely be coming back to do more exploring 😊Victoria R.

FAQ about our Alpharetta dog hiking trails
Are dog hiking trails safe?
While public dog parks have a number of safety issues, such as aggressive dogs, inattentive owners, disease transmission and general cleanliness, Sniffspot dog parks are much safer than a city or county park. With a Sniffspot off-leash area all bookings are private for just you and dogs you bring with you and we require all dogs to be vaccinated (or have equivalent titers). All Sniffspot locations are vetted and reviewed by guests so you can find the perfect place for you and your dog. 93% of reviews on Sniffspot visits are 5 stars. Our hiking trails tend to be outside the city, which lends to more privacy, but it is also important to follow typical hiking safety precautions, such as potentially having trail maps.
How do I know if a dog hiking trail works for my dog?
Sniffspot provides the tools to find the ideal spot. Start by applying basic filters, such as fencing 6 feet tall and distractions, to find a dog park with trails that works for your dog. You can also filter by size if you are looking for a certain acre park, an expansive off-leash dog park. If your dog doesn't have good recall, you can visit one of our fully fenced dog hiking trails. If your dog is reactive to other dogs, you can visit one of our dog hiking trails where there are no dogs audible or visible nearby. Since you are looking for trails, make sure to check photos to see if it the spot has flat trails or gnarly trails. You can also browse by specific amenities, if you are looking for a view or a beach, for instance, or other activities or fun features. You can check whether the spot has off or on street parking, the regular park hours, whether it has paved trails or a modern restroom.
What are the requirements to bring my dog to a Sniffspot dog hiking trail?
In order to hike the trails, we require that all dogs have basic vaccinations or equivalent titers. We do not permit dogs with a bite history. We require that guests sign our waiver and agree to follow our safety rules.
Will there be other dogs at the Sniffspot hiking trail at the same time as me?
Sniffspot only allows one booking at a time and any host dogs are required to be kept away from the spot during visits. We also enforce 30 min time buffers between bookings.
How much do Sniffspot hiking trails cost?
Dog hiking trails in the Alpharetta area range from $4.0 and $4.0. The least expensive dog hiking trail is Small Dog Meetup. The most expensive dog hiking trail is Small Dog Meetup. Each host sets their own price, so you can check the price on the specific Sniffspot dog park listing.
