About the Park
Open daily from 6 a.m. to 8 p.m., this fully fenced large-dog area in Aurora lets bigger dogs run securely within posted hours. The enclosure and clear schedule are the standout details, and Aurora's parks department lists it among the city's dog parks online. Access is free as a public facility. Aurora sits on the eastern edge of the Denver metro, with hot, storm-prone summers and cold winters, so bring water in warm months and watch for ice in the cold. Beyond the fenced run, plan to supply your own waste bags and water. The 6-to-8 hours are current in our records, but seasonal changes happen, so it is worth confirming times on the city site before a long drive.
infoWhat to Know Before You Go
Large Dog Area 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.
Best of all, Large Dog Area is completely free to visit — no membership or daily fees required.
backpackWhat to Bring

Poop bags
Most parks provide them, but don't rely on it. Always come prepared to clean up after your dog.

This park may have limited seating, so a portable chair can make longer visits more comfortable.

High-value treats
