About the Park
Riverside Dog Park is a one-acre enclosed off-leash area in Hawley, PA, beside the Riverside Trail and baseball field. It features separate sections for small and large dogs, benches for owners, and was developed by the Lake Region Community Dock Foundation. The park welcomes dogs of all sizes and their owners from diverse backgrounds.
infoWhat to Know Before You Go
Riverside 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.
There's a separate area for small dogs, which is perfect if you have a smaller breed that might be intimidated by larger dogs. This is a feature many dog owners specifically look for.
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, Riverside Dog Park is completely free to visit — no membership or daily fees required.
