About

Golden Gardens Park features a dedicated one-acre off-leash area located in the upper northern portion of the park, popular for dogs to run and play. The area is covered in wood chips with scattered trees, tables, benches, and a small covered area for shade and rain protection. While dogs are welcome in the off-leash zone, they are not allowed on the beaches or in children's play areas within Seattle parks.
