About the Park
Four acres is generous by any city's standard, and that's the size of the designated off-leash area at Fernhill Park, entered near 4050 NE Holman Street in Northeast Portland. Rolling hills break up the run, large trees throw shade, and the higher ground offers scenic views across the park. Seating is scattered around for owners. There's no fence on the off-leash zone, so this is voice-control territory. Grass covers the ground, green most of the year thanks to Portland's wet climate. Entry is free, and off-leash hours are posted at the park, so check signage on arrival. For dogs that like to really run, this is among Northeast Portland's roomiest options.
