Southwest Dog Park

Address: 1000 Ferry St, Eau Claire, WI 54703

Wooded trails, grassy stretches, and sandy spots along the Chippewa River make up this natural off-leash area in Eau Claire, with a 0.7-mile loop trail running through the property. The varied terrain — woodchips, grass, and beach — gives dogs plenty to explore across the seasons. Fencing doesn't extend all the way to the water's edge, so dogs with reliable recall will do best here. Waste bag stations, trash cans, and a parking lot are all on site.
