Overview

Tucked into Berkeley’s Ohlone Park, this spacious, fully fenced dog haven gives pups room to sprint on tanbark while owners relax in the shade and chat with a friendly local crowd. Separate big and small dog areas make it easy to find the right playmates for every temperament.

Details

Ohlone Dog Park is a large, established off‑leash run with two side‑by‑side enclosures for big and small dogs, so even tiny or shy pups can socialize safely through the shared fence line. The surface is covered in tanbark/wood chips, keeping things usable year‑round while dogs chase each other across the open space. Regulars mention plenty of chairs and shady spots to hang out, plus a convenient water station with bowls and a fill area so no one goes thirsty after a hard play session. Set within the broader Ohlone Park, it’s easy to pair a dog romp with a stroll along the paths or a family visit to the nearby playground and picnic areas.
