Dog Park
We welcome you to bring your dog on a leash and enjoy most of our city parks. However, we know most dogs love to run free and most dog owners would like to provide their pets with the opportunity to do so. Glendale dog owners now have another place to let their dogs run around leash-free. In addition to the large fenced-in play area, the park has a play area for small dogs, water fountains and waste stations. The new park means a healthier lifestyle for our furry friends and provides a great area for dog owners to socialize. The unique design of the dog park allows parks staff to have one large section of the dog park open while allowing the other section to recuperate from previous uses. This allows for a seamless transition during maintenance and fewer dog park closures.

Bicycle Safety Stations
Another feature the park is a bicycle safety component focusing on teaching young cyclists, ages 5 to 14, bicycle safety, but everyone will benefit from going through the program. Bicycle safety stations are located throughout the park to offer a self-paced bicycle safety clinic. The stations feature bike safety inspections and safety information about the rules of the road. Much of these features are interactive and provide valuable information for safe bike riding, including a miniature "rock dodge" course set up in the park. Other information includes bike maintenance and helmet fitting. Click here for the station information and map. (pdf)
