Located at 530 S in the heart of American Fork, Utah, the American Fork Dog Park is a popular destination for local dog owners seeking an off-leash space for their furry companions. This dog park features two clearly separated areas for both small dogs (25 lbs and under) and large dogs (over 25 lbs), making it ideal for owners who want a safe spot for pets of different sizes. The park offers a double-gate (airlock-style) entry, gravel surfaces for dogs to run and dig, and some agility equipment for dogs to enjoy.
While the park is mainly gravel with limited greenery and natural shade, visitors will find essentials like benches, dog water spouts, and waste disposal stations (when stocked). There’s street parking nearby, and friendly visitors praise the welcoming atmosphere. Pet parents will also appreciate mountain views from the small dog area and the convenience of waste stations and trash bins within the park. Though the park lacks significant shade or covered shelters, and can be muddy or dusty depending on the weather, it remains a useful stop for traveling dog owners or those searching for a fenced, off-leash dog park in Utah County.
