55Everything was amazing from the instant we arrived! The initial greet was warm and welcoming and the property itself offered plenty of room to run and play! Plenty of tables to picnic while you are there and camp sites are available to rent as well! I can not wait to return to this hidden gem!Desiree G.

55Wonderful scenic woods. Grace was very welcoming. My dog loved exploring (and getting to see the goats) and I could relax with the fenced in area and many nice shelters and seating areas.Anne W.

55Both of our boys had an absolute blast!! Our great Dane is hard to take to a regular dog park (due to his intimidating size) and giving him open room to run with his (smaller) brother was the absolute best day ever! :) Our host was extremely gracious when we got lost getting to their location as well! Bring hiking shoes as the people got quite a work out as well as the dogs!!!! Absolutely beautiful and the small creek was the favorite spot for the furballs. Will happily return soon. Emily Z.

55My pups had a great time exploring! Great space and we will definitely be back! Host was very responsive and goats/horse were contained in a separate area. For those with reactive dogs, you do need to walk past the animals, but once over the bridge, pups were free to explore. No human or dog interaction during our visit. If you have a small escape artist, you might need to keep an eye out. Overall, awesome spot! Loved the mini forest!Claire M.

55The dogs had an absolutely fantastic time. They loved all the woods, hills, trails and of course the creek. Thank you for joining Sniffspot and opening your property to our 4 legged family members. Susan S.

55This was our first visit to the Mini Forest and this place is really wonderful. It is a large forested area with some large walking paths as well as some smaller trails scattered about. Just after you cross over the bridge there is a lovely little picnic area where we had lunch. The creek is close by there if you want to go down the hill a bit to it. Then we climbed up the hill - you will want some good walking shoes - to some open meadows and additional trails. There are also some outbuildings scattered about and some places to sit. The is a mix of open area and tall shaded tree areas so will be good in the summer. Property is fenced but we saw a few areas that a determined dog could go under. Because the property is large and wooded, if off leash, best to have a good recall. Property was easy to find and parking spot was labeled. If coming from the south, go through Granite Falls as property is closer to there than Arlington. Host Grace met us in the driveway and was very friendly and engaging. She respected that Kai doesn't like to meet people he doesn't know. We wereonly here for an hour for our first visit but we will plan for 2 hours for next time. Great place to bring a picnic and enjoy the surroundings. There is a lot to explore in this peaceful wooded setting!June M.

55My two dogs, toddler and I had a great time! The land is well manicured so it’s clear where to go without disturbing the forest feel and the trees offer plenty of shade (which was much appreciated by this 8 months pregnant mama!). The hills were a bit much for my older dog but any agile pup ought to have a grand time! (And my old lady had a great time too, she just had a little trouble towards the end navigating the terrain). The creek is lovely and the boundaries of the property are very clear. Lovely host! We can’t wait to go back and explore again. Mollyrose D.

55Grace was such a welcoming host and her property was wonderful. My two dogs had a blast running around through the forest-like terrain, and I had a great time not worrying about them running off or having any distractions, as we were totally alone and it was fully fenced in, aside from the entrance that leads back towards her house - but it’s easily far enough that the dogs wouldn’t go that way. It was muddy in spots and there was some tall grass depending on which way you go, so wearing some sort of boots is recommended. My dogs were exhausted, and we will definitely be back! Bella R.

FAQ about our Pitt Meadows 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.
