55My dog and I had an amazing time here! The trails are well kept, and there is so much space for her to run around and be herself. Loved that there was a pond she could go swimming in. We'll be back for sure! TJ N.

55Absolutely bucolic. Too many things to say about this amazing sniffspot. My only regret is not getting a picture of all these Canadian tiger swallowtails that were flitting around in the fields. Such a beautiful spot!Stephanie J.

55This place is vast and incredible. Rife with different terrains and levels, little creatures like frogs - a haven for any dog that loves to climb, sniff, and all around explore. It should be noted that on rainy days/after there can be ALOT of mosquitoes, which is typical of Ontario. The host provides great bug repellent, but do dress accordingly. Mirella N.

55What an awesome spot!!! We are in town visiting family with our dog and needed a little adventure that the kids could come on also! We had such a great walk through the woods ( that were nicely marked), our dog found the pond before we did and jumped straight in!!!!! We loved running through the field and we did utilize the outhouse ( bonus) great spot all around will definitely be back next time we are in Ottawa! We also purchased farm fresh eggs and some dog treats that were left for us in a cooler at the parking area! Susie D.

55Every time I come here, I find new little spots I haven’t explored yet with Romeo. This is definitely a go to spot. There’s so much space to explore, run and sniff. I also enjoy taking a little break to relax and take in the views. Stephanie F.

FAQ about our Ottawa 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.
