Eastern Trailhead - "Dog Park"

Many know it simply as the “ Dog Park.” Located off Route 53, .5 miles off Route 15, this trailhead has become something spectacular. Amenities include a Dog Park – open to the public at no fee, 3 picnic shelters, an ADA accessible gravel dust trail that leads to banks of the Rivanna River, as well as a self guided fitness trail. Shelters can be reserved and rented or they are on a first come, first serve basis.
