Dog Park at Ferguson Park

location_onCottonwood Heights, UT

Ferguson Park in Cottonwood Heights holds a fully fenced dog park on South Prospector Drive, tucked against the Ferguson Canyon trailhead at the base of the Wasatch. A double-gated entrance opens onto a dirt run with a shade shelter, benches, and picnic tables, plus water access and restrooms with running water nearby. A walking loop and dirt path with mountain views give owners a reason to linger, and the adjacent trailhead makes it easy to pair a dog-park visit with a hike. It is a free public park, open daily from 7:00 AM to 10:00 PM. The canyon setting means shade and cooler air, though summer afternoons still warrant water and mindful timing.

Off-Leash Safety

Some parks in Cottonwood Heights offer fenced enclosures, which are ideal if your dog is still working on recall or if you simply want peace of mind. Always check the fence condition when you arrive — look for gaps at ground level that a determined digger could exploit.

Best Times to Visit

Dog parks in Cottonwood Heights tend to be busiest on weekend mornings and weekday evenings after work. If your dog prefers calmer environments or you're working on training, try visiting during off-peak hours — mid-morning on weekdays is usually the quietest.

What to Bring

Pack fresh water and a collapsible bowl, poop bags, and high-value treats for recall practice. Even if the park provides waste stations, bring your own bags as backup. A basic first aid kit with styptic powder and bandage wrap is smart to keep in your car.
