Cherry Creek Dog Park

Address: leash area north access, Cherry creek state park dog off, 12 Mile North Parking Access, Aurora, CO 80015

Over 80 acres of trails, open space, and a creek for swimming make this one of Aurora's more substantial off-leash options. Agility equipment, calmer water spots, waste bags, water fountains, and shaded areas are all part of the mix. There's an entrance fee to get in, and given the scale of the place, keeping an eye on your dog during group play is worth the extra attention.
