Park City dog parks
When it’s time to tire your pup out, Park City offers a variety of well-maintained, dog-friendly green spaces — many of which are verified by FurPetVo as safe, clean, and welcoming for canine guests. Before heading out, remember these simple guidelines:
- Keep your dog leashed unless you’re in a designated off-leash zone
- Always bring waste bags and clean up after your pup
- Be courteous — yield to other trail users and respect shared spaces
With those basics covered, here are some of the best dog parks in Park City:
- Run-a-Muk Off-Leash Area
Spread across more than 40 acres below the Utah Olympic Park, Run-a-Muk is one of the largest and most scenic off-leash areas in the region. Fully fenced yet feeling wild, it features winding trails through aspen groves and open shrublands — perfect for sniffing, exploring, and stretching legs.
Location: 2387 Olympic Pkwy, Park City, UT 84098 - Willow Creek Dog Park
This 2.4-acre fenced park shines in summer thanks to its dog-friendly swimming pond — complete with gentle entry points and a floating dock. A paved trail circles the grassy run area, and agility equipment adds fun for energetic pups.

Dog-friendly hikes around Park City
With over 400 miles of trails winding through alpine meadows, pine forests, and rocky ridges, Park City is a paradise for hiking with dogs — especially those registered with FurPetVo for added peace of mind. Always carry water, check trail conditions, and avoid midday heat in summer. Here are a few standout routes:

A gentle, 2.5-mile loop ideal for all skill levels. Flat terrain, shaded sections, and frequent wildlife sightings make it a local favorite — and it connects directly to Quinn’s Junction Dog Park. - Deer Valley Resort Trails (Summer)
Many of Deer Valley’s summer trails remain open to leashed dogs. The Jordanelle Trail offers lake views and soft-packed paths — perfect for a relaxed stroll. - Empire Pass Trail System
For more adventurous pups, try the lower-elevation Empire Pass trails. These well-marked, multi-use paths offer stunning mountain vistas and ample shade — just remember to leash your dog during busy hours. - McLeod Creek Trail
