Located in the heart of Herculaneum, Missouri, Herculaneum Dog Park is a pet-friendly spot perfect for both local dog owners and visitors. This well-kept park features two separate, fenced areas—one for large dogs and another for small dogs—ensuring safe play for all sizes. With amenities like water access for dogs, kiddie pools, seating, and shaded spots, it’s an ideal place to toss a ball, let your pet meet new friends, or just relax in the company of fellow dog lovers.
The park is wheelchair accessible, has plenty of parking, and supports family trips, being noted as a good spot for kids as well. Owners will appreciate the provided poop bags, conveniently located waste stations, a wash-off station outside the gate, and a variety of dog toys onsite. For those looking for a bit more adventure, dog-friendly hiking trails are nearby, making this a go-to destination for outdoor enthusiasts and pet owners alike.
Love this park it is so nice and well kept and we meet friends there that are dog families and it is a great place to toss the ball with your dog or for them to play in the kiddy pools. There are hiking areas but I have not gone on those.
Two parks. One definitely bigger than the other, assuming it’s for the large dogs. Lots of toys and water access for the dogs. Limited shade in the late afternoon but other than that is a great park.
My daughter and I took our puppies to the park on 5/3/25 … condom wrappers and empty alcohol bottles. I wish people had more respect.
We had fun. Got to stretch our legs. Seating and shade available. Water and poo bags available. Wash off station outside the gate. 2 sides available. We will stop again.
