55This spot is beautiful and so fun! It’s a bit winding so be careful if you have a bad sense of direction. Watch out for holes if you go in the dark. Also a great spot for hide and seek if you bring a friend! My dog had so much fun sniffing me out! :)Makenzie M.

55Welp this is just about the most fun place ever, imagine being able to go for a hike with your baby and not worry about running into others? (Well we did see a rider on a horse but they were incredibly easy to avoid and it was just the one) Place is so huge we almost got lost in the woods but there are signs that definitely help. Was able to set up a blanket and have lunch while my dog romped and played instead of using the picnic tables by the zoom zone. The creeks and ponds are just breathtakingly beautiful. I think I’m just as obsessed with this place as my pup is, who is passed the heck out right now from our adventure. Kristyn S.

55Had a wonderful time exploring the trails with our off-leash pup. Great opportunity to reinforce her recall skills. Such a surprise to find a bottle of bubbles... Our pup LUVS bubbles. :-)
Looking forward to many more visits.

55Very nice spot that the owners have put a lot of care into. Felt a little restrictive and confusing in terms of access- lots of signs telling you where you could go and couldn’t go and some of the side trails led to private areas that weren’t marked, so we ended up in some of the areas we weren’t supposed to be in (specifically side trail near the first pond). It was a little limited in that sense and not truly 20 acres and that was disappointing. But a very nice spot nonetheless. Also GPS doesn’t send you to the right address, so be aware of that before you go.
Also could hear hear neighboring dogs barking, so be aware of that- I about had a heart attack thinking they were going to come into the yard because my boy is dog aggressive!Christina B.

55Another wonderful trip. The trail makes it feel like you are off leash hiking and club zoomies is perfect for lots of fetch. The dogs did a lot of swimming in the upper pond today and had the best time.Tina P.

55We had a great time romping around the woods and fields. Got confused at first about how to get to the Sniffspot - it’s OPPOSITE the driveway from where you park- not forward past the farm animals!Amelia J.

55This is our 3rd or 4th time here. I've went ahead and signed up for a membership. Black Pond Farm has great availability. This Sniffspot is always clean. Sometimes you can see giant Pacific salamanders. My Swissy loves running up and down the trails and exploring every nook and cranny. The seating area and canopy at the fair end of the trail is nice for a break. Today we practiced truffle hunting with scent tins. Thanks for offering such a lovely place for my dog and me.Nikki B.

55Visited on a sunny day and even more beautiful. If you take the trail to ‘forbidden trail’ and continue, you can hike on for quite a way. We walked for 30 minutes and then headed back.Elizabeth R.

FAQ about our Hauser 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 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.

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.
