About the Park
Tucked into the Ohio River town of Tell City, this free public park gives southern Indiana dogs room to roam off-leash. Tell City, in Perry County, was founded by Swiss and German immigrants and named for the legendary marksman William Tell. The riverside setting means warm, humid summers and generally mild winters, so early-morning visits are kinder in July and August. Our records do not list set hours, so look for posted times at the entrance or ask the city parks office. Standard off-leash etiquette applies: pack water, carry cleanup bags, and make sure your dog is up to date on vaccinations and comfortable in a group. It is a straightforward, cost-free spot for residents of Perry County.
infoWhat to Know Before You Go
Tell City Dog Park is an off-leash area without full fencing. Make sure your dog has solid recall before letting them loose, and keep an eye on them near any roads or boundaries.
Best of all, Tell City Dog Park is completely free to visit — no membership or daily fees required.
backpackWhat to Bring

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.

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
