Highland Dog Park

Address: 5th St SW, Roanoke, VA 24016

Shaded and spacious, this Roanoke park covers the basics well — water stations, benches, waste bags, restrooms, and separate fenced runs for large and small dogs. Opinions on the social atmosphere vary among regulars, and the ground surface has drawn some complaints about gravel and occasional glass. Worth a walk-through before letting your dog loose to check current conditions.
