About the Park
Chinquapin Park Off Leash Area is in Alexandria, VA.
infoWhat to Know Before You Go
Chinquapin Park Off Leash Area is an off-leash area without full fencing. Make sure your dog has solid recall before letting them loose, and keep an eye on them near any roads or boundaries.
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.
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, Chinquapin Park Off Leash Area is completely free to visit — no membership or daily fees required.
