Dog parks with shade

Dogs cope with heat less well than people do. On hot days a dog park with plenty of trees is the best place for a walk, because the shade keeps the temperature down.

Here are 256 dog parks where at least 60% of the area is covered by woodland. The figure next to each dog park shows how much of it is woodland.

Measured from the dog park's boundary on our map and data from OpenStreetMap. How we measure.

Frequently asked questions

When is it too hot to walk your dog?

Above 25°C, walk early in the morning or late in the evening, choose shady spots and bring water. Tarmac and sand can get hot enough to burn your dog's paws.

How do you measure the shade?

We measure how much of the dog park's area is woodland according to OpenStreetMap.
