Let your dog run free at Bark Springs Dog Park or explore the trails at Sharp Springs Park.

Smyrna is a fantastic destination for water-loving dogs and active owners, blending parkland with lakeside recreation. The highlight is Bark Springs Dog Park, located within the massive Sharp Springs Park. This off-leash area offers separate zones for large and small dogs, agility obstacles, and is well-shaded by mature trees, keeping it cool in the summer. Sharp Springs Park itself is a gem, featuring miles of unpaved hiking trails and paved greenways that wind through forests and along the lakeshore, offering endless variety for your daily walks.

Access to J. Percy Priest Lake provides unique opportunities for dogs to cool off in the water at casual access points (while respecting designated human-only beaches). The town's commitment to parks and recreation ensures that trails and facilities are well-maintained and accessible year-round. From forest hikes to lakeside splashes and off-leash romps, Smyrna offers a diverse array of activities. The community is active and pet-friendly, with many events and gatherings held in the parks, making it an ideal place for you and your dog to thrive.
