55This was our first time at a sniffspot and we brought two GSPs and a vizsla. They really enjoyed the trails and the field. Two are ball obsessed and loved all of the room to have us throw and chase the ball. My older GSP is all about hunting through the woods and enjoying all of the smells. Everything seemed very secure and the outhouse at the gate was appreciated. Would definitely recommend and come back!Deana C.

55First time stopping on our way home. This is a great spot! Big and lots of sniffs, plenty of trails to do a few laps to let the dogs and the humans stretch their legs between mpls and Madison. We will stop again!Jackie M.

55This is the first time my boy Rollo has come here since we adopted him and he had a GREAT time! His big sister tried so hard to keep up as he sprinted joyfully around and even tried the agility hoops, and now I have two sleepy, happy dogs. A great start to 2024! :)Emily E.

55This was so much fun for our two dogs as well as my husband and me. The area has nice wide paths, wooded area and open field. It was so worth the price and 2 hour drive. Jayne M.

55This is a fantastic Sniffspot! It is secure, a big open field for fetch and in the winter they plow big paths for people around the field. There are also wooded paths that would be great for snow shoeing! Recommend bringing extra tennis balls because some will probably get lost in the snow! Samuel B.

55Perfect!! My dogs had a blast. The huge area was fenced in well. The trails were nicely maintained. There was a nice mixture of shaded areas and open areas. The owner is great and responded promptly to questions. If we are in the area again we will definitely stop by. Corryn G.

55Took the girls to their favorite Sniffspot today. I was a bit worried with our lack of snow that the trails may be muddy, but they were great. I didn’t even need my boots!Pat R.

55Easy to follow directions, secure gate and fully fenced. Several trails go around the perimeter and cut across to the center open field. The trails are cut thru wooded area and absolutely beautiful. Stopped on my trip up north at hour 5 of driving was a very welcome break for me and the pups. Will book again!Karen E.

FAQ about our Fairchild dog hiking trails
Are dog hiking trails safe?
While public dog parks have a number of safety issues, such as aggressive dogs, inattentive owners, disease transmission and general cleanliness, Sniffspot dog parks are much safer than a city or county park. With a Sniffspot off-leash area all bookings are private for just you and dogs you bring with you and we require all dogs to be vaccinated (or have equivalent titers). All Sniffspot locations are vetted and reviewed by guests so you can find the perfect place for you and your dog. 93% of reviews on Sniffspot visits are 5 stars. Our hiking trails tend to be outside the city, which lends to more privacy, but it is also important to follow typical hiking safety precautions, such as potentially having trail maps.
How can I find dog hiking trails in Fairchild?
There are 6 dog hiking trails in the Fairchild area. The most popular dog hiking trail is Sniffspot Fairchild. You can browse all of our dog hiking trails here.
How do I know if a dog hiking trail works for my dog?
Sniffspot provides the tools to find the ideal spot. Start by applying basic filters, such as fencing 6 feet tall and distractions, to find a dog park with trails that works for your dog. You can also filter by size if you are looking for a certain acre park, an expansive off-leash dog park. If your dog doesn't have good recall, you can visit one of our fully fenced dog hiking trails. If your dog is reactive to other dogs, you can visit one of our dog hiking trails where there are no dogs audible or visible nearby. Since you are looking for trails, make sure to check photos to see if it the spot has flat trails or gnarly trails. You can also browse by specific amenities, if you are looking for a view or a beach, for instance, or other activities or fun features. You can check whether the spot has off or on street parking, the regular park hours, whether it has paved trails or a modern restroom.
What are the requirements to bring my dog to a Sniffspot dog hiking trail?
In order to hike the trails, we require that all dogs have basic vaccinations or equivalent titers. We do not permit dogs with a bite history. We require that guests sign our waiver and agree to follow our safety rules.
Will there be other dogs at the Sniffspot hiking trail at the same time as me?
Sniffspot only allows one booking at a time and any host dogs are required to be kept away from the spot during visits. We also enforce 30 min time buffers between bookings.
