Explore the massive urban parks and dog runs of the Bronx.
The Bronx, New York, often called the "Borough of Parks," is an incredible place for dogs and their owners. It is home to some of the largest urban parks in the country, including Pelham Bay Park and Van Cortlandt Park. These massive green spaces offer miles of trails where leashed dogs can explore diverse habitats, from salt marshes to mature forests. For off-leash socialization, the Bronx features dozens of well-maintained dog runs, such as the Williamsbridge Oval Dog Park and the Woodlawn Dog Run, which offer separate sections for large and small dogs. Beyond the parks, many of the Bronx's neighborhoods are incredibly walkable and feature pet-friendly cafes and shops. The borough's rich cultural heritage and vibrant community life make it a dynamic place to explore with your pup. Whether you're hiking through the North Woods or enjoying a sunset walk along the Grand Concourse, the Bronx provides a wealth of dog-friendly adventures in the heart of New York City.
