Joaquin Miller Dog Park

Joaquin Miller Dog Park is in the Oakland Hills admist thousands of redwoods and oak trees which offer shade and a beautfiful natural setting. There are separate runs for large and small dogs and plenty of easy parking. Dogs must be on leash from the car to dog runs.

The dog park can't be seen from the road so look for the big old wooden sign that says Woodminster Theater. Drive into the park and stay to the left. In about one minute you will arrive at the dog park. This link will get you there.

DOG PARK CLOSING

The large and small dog parks close frequently during June, July, August and September so that they can be returned to their original use as parking lots for Woodminster Theater.

To keep the dog park open for use most of the year, users must volunter to help close it down for the summer events and monitor it for illegal use. It depends on dog owners like you to volunteer an hour of time during the summer. Send us an email now.

The dog runs are closed a lot during  the summer

The rest of Joaquin MIller Park is absolutely LEASH REQUIRED on all trails and park areas except the dog park.
