About the Park
With a playful name, Bow Wow WOW!!! Bark Park serves Lower Paxton Township in the Harrisburg suburbs of Dauphin County. It is a free public park with an off-leash area for dogs. Our listing does not confirm fencing, surface type, or hours, so check locally before you visit, especially if your dog needs a fully enclosed space. Central Pennsylvania weather swings from hot, humid summers to cold winters, so bring water in warm months and expect the ground to change through the seasons. For residents around Colonial Park and greater Harrisburg, it is a handy no-cost place to let a dog run leash-free. Pack your own waste bags in case supplies are not stocked on-site.
