About the Park
Banning Regional Park Dog Park is a pet-friendly off-leash area within the larger regional park, featuring fully fenced sections for small and large dogs. It includes water fountains, agility equipment like jumps and tunnels, shaded areas, and nearby walking trails. The park offers ample open space for dogs to run and play, with free entry.
infoWhat to Know Before You Go
Banning Regional Park Dog Park is fully fenced, so your dog can run and play off-leash without worry. This makes it a great choice for dogs still working on recall or for owners who want extra peace of mind.
There's a separate area for small dogs, which is perfect if you have a smaller breed that might be intimidated by larger dogs. This is a feature many dog owners specifically look for.
Dogs can enjoy water features here — great for cooling off on hot days. Bring a towel for the car ride home, because your pup will probably get soaked.
The park has agility equipment, which is excellent for high-energy dogs that need both physical and mental stimulation. Even if your dog hasn't tried agility before, most dogs pick it up quickly with a little encouragement.
Walking trails are available, so you and your dog can enjoy a walk beyond just the off-leash area. Trails are a great option for dogs who enjoy sniffing and exploring at their own pace.
Best of all, Banning Regional Park Dog Park is completely free to visit — no membership or daily fees required.
