About the Park
Roughly 9,500 square feet of fully fenced, off-leash space makes up North Hills Dog Park on St Albans Drive in Raleigh's Midtown area. The perimeter fence is the headline amenity; beyond it, documented details are thin, with no confirmed surface type or feature list in our records. Hours are reported inconsistently too, with one listing showing the park open around the clock and another saying sunrise to sunset, so go by whatever signage is posted when you arrive. There is no charge to use it. For dog owners living or working around the North Hills shopping district, it works best as a convenient close-by option rather than a destination park.
infoWhat to Know Before You Go
North Hills 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.
Best of all, North Hills Dog Park is completely free to visit — no membership or daily fees required.
backpackWhat to Bring
Fresh water and a bowl
Even parks with water fountains can have them out of service. Bring your own to be safe.
Poop bags
Most parks provide them, but don't rely on it. Always come prepared to clean up after your dog.
A folding chair
This park may have limited seating, so a portable chair can make longer visits more comfortable.
A reflective collar or light-up leash
If you visit near dusk, visibility gear helps you keep track of your dog and stay safe.
High-value treats
Useful for practicing recall in a distracting environment and rewarding good social behavior.
Your dog's favorite toy
A familiar toy can help shy dogs feel more comfortable and give them something to focus on.
