About the Park
Long hours set Herman Franks apart: the fully fenced off-leash area at 1371 South 700 East is open 5 a.m. to 11 p.m. every day, which works for early shifts and late summer evenings alike. Large trees shade parts of the run, and benches let owners sit while dogs tackle the agility obstacles. A water fountain and waste stations cover the basics. The dog park sits inside the larger Herman Franks Park, next to its baseball fields and playground, so it folds easily into a family outing. Entry is free, and the city includes it among Salt Lake City's official off-leash areas.
infoWhat to Know Before You Go
Herman Franks 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.
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.
Best of all, Herman Franks Dog Park is completely free to visit — no membership or daily fees required.

A towel
Your dog will likely get wet at the water features. Save your car seats with a quick dry-off.
