About the Park
Out past 82nd, Lynchwood Park gives far Southeast Portland a fully fenced off-leash option on SE 170th Avenue. A double-gated entry keeps comings and goings controlled, the main space is a large open field, and a dog-friendly trail adds variety beyond fetch. Water access and seating are on site, with a playground and sports fields nearby in the wider park. The surface mixes materials rather than relying on grass alone. Hours run 5 a.m. to midnight daily, free of charge. For residents of the surrounding neighborhoods, the combination of secure fencing, water, and genuine running room means there is little reason to drive across town to a busier park.
infoWhat to Know Before You Go
Lynchwood Park Off Leash 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.
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, Lynchwood Park Off Leash Area is completely free to visit — no membership or daily fees required.
