About This Park
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.
