Judy's 5 Acre Unfenced Private Dog Park In Wrightwood

Unfenced

5 acres

Come explore the trail behind Wrightwood Place. Originally built by John Wilkins (Red Barn Opry founder) it leads to John’s cross and then up the hillside about a quarter mile to the Angeles National Forest. Moderate to difficult due to slippery hillsides, poorly marked switch backs, and fallen trees. But great views! Hazards: UNFENCED! Coyotes, rattlesnakes, cougars, and other wildlife. Sharp plants and rocks. And stuff I don’t even know about yet. There is a water spigot just below the trailhead. I’ll unlock the restrooms for you if you let me know you are coming.

Gorgeous place! This is hands down my dog and I's FAVORITE Sniffspot by far! There are plenty of fun terrains that my dog enjoyed walking up.

Aimee d.

September 2023

What a fabulous piece of property perfect to hike up a beautiful trail. Wonderful spot for your dog to get some good exercise and you to breathe fresh air. Easy to find, parking space just for you and the host, Robin was very kind and friendly. Bear and I’ll be back for sure.

Katherine N.

October 2023

Great trail, lots of sniffing! Perfect space to build confidence in my reactive dog. Enjoyed the hour in the sun and the native plants all around!

Rikki G.

November 2023

Awesome to find a Sniffspot that’s not just a backyard! Getting a wild, sprawling trail all to yourself is worth the drive. The trails can be a little confusing but Robin is very friendly and helpful.

Jackie K.

November 2023

This was our first Sniffspot and my boy Kuma loved it! He’s a seasoned hiker so it was really great to explore on the trails off leash. The instructions were clear and there were a few Sniffspot signs (even for parking) to indicate we were going the right way. We’re looking forward to returning!

Shannon Y.

November 2023

This is one of the coolest sniffspots I’ve taken my dogs to! They LOVED getting to hike off leash and had a blast sniffing around. We didn’t run into anyone and had an easy time finding the start of the trail. Highly recommend to anyone looking to do something different with their dog!

Megan C.

November 2023

The spot was great. I didn’t walk the fire road, I just stuck to the short trails around the hill. The trails on the hill were rugged but short and easy to follow. My 13y/o beagle went up no problem.

Maxine R.

December 2023

I loved this place and should have booked longer than an hour. The host was extremely kind and welcoming, reminding us there were bathrooms, a fridge if needed, and water. The grounds are vast and clean, with beautiful views. My doggy, Lulu, loved it. There are multiple trails and signs at the head to guide you (if you pay attention)

Ken H.

November 2023

There is a sign showing where to park your car, just look down at curb level as opposed to eye level. There is a sign on the bridge to the left as you walk in indicating the path. There are several other signs pointing to other trails to the right, however, I am not clear if we are allowed to go on them. Once you walk up the Sniffspot trail, it can get a little steep. Continue on the fence line and we think if you cross over a wire that is where the open dog run is, but we were not 100% sure as we didn’t have to cross a wire. beautiful views didn’t see of another person or any other dogs. Overall great experience dogs loved it and it was quite relaxing to be on the trails.

Marina R.

November 2023

One of the coolest spots I've seen! The trails are really nice and clear with signage around the spot to help you navigate. We found several really nice viewpoints, and a spot to play fetch. I would definitely dress for a bit of a hike with this one with some sturdy shoes. 1000000% recommend and would visit again!

Jen M.

December 2023

Great trail! Moderate hike, so make sure you have tread on your shoes for steep grades. Up to the top and back down took us 1 hour. Parking is easy… at the end of Moy Street you will see a parking spot with the SniffSpot logo painted on it. Our dog had the best time ever for his 5th birthday celebration hike 🥳! Will be back again!

Tina D.

January 2024

Dogs had a blast! I went for the hike/trails which I would say is intermediate. Definitely wear good shoes. But there is small-medium size area to play fetch/relax. Dogs being able to be off-leash to run and explore is fabulous for them! I will definitely be coming back. I booked 2hrs and think next time I’ll do 2.5hrs. Host was very kind and prompt in answering few questions I had via message. Only nit-pick is trail could use more signs.

Randy P.

January 2024

Really great spot for hiking with views. Once you make it past the beginning portion it becomes a traditional looking trail and is very serene and quiet. The owner was there and was very welcoming and hospitable as well. Will return.

Kayan J.

September 2023

Wonderful spot! It is my dog's absolute favorite adventure. The terrain can get steep at some times as a warning, but the steepness is my dog's favorite part of this place--she LOVESSS climbing and jumping up steep portions. We did not encounter any wildlife other than maybe a few lizards. My dog is incredibly nervous around loud noises and unfamiliar places, but this place is super secluded and quiet and my dog has had no issues opening up and exploring! :) Robin is also an amazing & responsive host.

Anna D.

June 2024

Really nice bit of trails! I wanted to take my puppy on a hike without people nor other dogs and this was perfect! Her fur still smells sweet like the desert flowers and she was very very happy.

Levi T.

November 2024

Really beautiful place. The instructions and signage are confusing but it seems like they are in the process of making some changes. We were surprised by someone working on the trail which could have been an issue had I decided to unleash my dog before then. Owner doesn’t seem to respond to messages, but again…seems like they are working out some kinks.

Len B.

December 2024

i have a hyper and reactive dog, and this place is perfect for us. there was only us all through the end. the place is clean and easy to follow as you can see a lot of signs as you walk through the trails. beautiful view as well! we’ll be back for sure, thank you so much! we love

Lacy B.

December 2024

This wasn't ideal spot for our senior boy, but he would have loved it in his prime! It is a very steep climb so make sure you wear hiking specific shoes. Robin was very kind!

Michael A. C.

January 2025

This was, by far, my dog's favorite experience in his lifetime. He had so much fun and was definitely in his element. Robin is a wonderful host. Very friendly and accommodating. I highly recommend this Sniffspot location. As many others have mentioned, this spot has fairly steep terrain. So, I suggest wearing appropriate shoes and be a somewhat experienced hiker. Will definitely visit again as well as explore his other location.

Beatriz C.

January 2025

I drove to Moorpark by mistake and it took me an hour to get back to the actual spot, Robin very nice about it and very responsive. The hike is a bit hard but it was awesome to take some energy out of my puppy. Loved this place and will definitely come back!

FAQ about our Los Angeles 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.
