    11000 Berry St, Fairfax, VA 22030

    The City of Fairfax off-leash area, with separate large-dog and small-dog sections and gravel footing that drains fast — a real advantage in a region where grass parks turn to soup every spring. Picnic tables inside the fence, on-site parking, and a quiet residential setting that keeps things low-key even on weekends.

    When to go in Fairfax

    Weekday mornings before 9am and the hour before sunset are the quietest windows at Fairfax parks. Saturday mornings are the busiest — and the most social, if you're trying to meet the regulars. From late winter into early spring, DMV parks turn soft: check the mud factor on each park page before you drive over, since locals update it after every rain.
