Lansburgh Dog Park

Address: 95 M St SW, Washington, DC 20024

Gravel and dirt underfoot, separate sections for large and small dogs, and water fountains with bowls make this tucked-away D.C. spot a functional off-leash option. A few benches and shade trees round out the modest setup, and parking is available next to the adjoining police lot. After rain the surface turns muddy, so timing your visit around the weather helps.
