About the Park
This downtown off-leash dog area near Lady Bird Lake offers spacious grounds with water access, shade, and picnic facilities. The scenic riverfront setting provides city views and good space for dogs to run. However, it is not fully fenced and sits adjacent to busy roads, jogging trails, and cyclists, requiring dogs with solid recall. Parking is limited and can be difficult to find.
