About the Park
Hartwood Acres Dog Park serves dog owners in Hampton Township, part of Allegheny County north of Pittsburgh. Dogs are welcome off-leash, and the park is free to use as a public facility. Our records do not confirm whether it is fully fenced, so check the enclosure before releasing your dog if recall is a concern. No set hours are listed, so plan around daylight and defer to any signage posted at the park. This is a suburban Pittsburgh-area spot, convenient for nearby residents looking for regular off-leash time. Amenities beyond the off-leash area are not documented, so bring water and cleanup bags. Western Pennsylvania winters can be snowy, so footing may vary with the season during your visits.
infoWhat to Know Before You Go

Best of all, Hartwood Acres Dog Park is completely free to visit — no membership or daily fees required.
