About the Park
Diamond Heights occupies some of the highest ground in San Francisco, and Walter Haas Dog Park is the 94131 neighborhood's free off-leash spot. Expect wind — the central ridge catches it — and city views that make the elevation worthwhile. Off-leash play is the one documented feature; the record doesn't note fencing, surface, or hours, so walk the boundary before releasing a dog with unreliable recall, especially on a hilltop site. The park shares its name with the Walter Haas Playground that locals know as a landmark in this area. No fee applies. Water isn't a documented amenity, so carry some, and pack a layer for yourself on foggy summer evenings.
infoWhat to Know Before You Go
Walter Haas 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, Walter Haas Dog Park is completely free to visit — no membership or daily fees required.
