Top 5 Dog-Friendly Spots Around Robbinsville, NJ for Weekend Adventures
— Because your dog deserves a little adventure too!
Is there anything better than spending a sunny weekend exploring with your pup? We don’t think so either. Whether your dog is all about running wild in wide-open fields or prefers a peaceful stroll where they can sniff every leaf and lamppost, the Robbinsville area has plenty of pup-approved spots to check out.
At Golden Paws Pet Resort & Spa, we’re all about helping dogs live their best lives—both inside our doors and out in the world with you! So if you’re looking for some fresh ideas for your next dog-friendly outing, we’ve rounded up a few of our favorite local spots for a day full of tail wags and happy paws.
Robbinsville Community Park (Robbinsville, NJ)
This local park is a hidden gem! Robbinsville Community Park is quiet, well-kept, and filled with walking trails and big grassy areas that are perfect for sniffing, stretching, and squirrel-watching. Bring a leash, your pup’s favorite toy, and enjoy a peaceful stroll right in town.
Mercer County Park (West Windsor, NJ)
Only a short drive away and totally worth it! With over 2,500 acres to explore (yep, you read that right), Mercer County Park park is perfect for both adventure dogs and their humans. Bonus: It has a fenced-in Bark Park with separate areas for large and small dogs, so your pup can run, romp, and make new friends safely.
Rosedale Dog Park (Pennington, NJ)
An off-leash haven! Rosedale Dog Park features separate areas for large and small dogs, agility structures, and more than 5 acres of running room. It’s worth the drive for the social pups who love to mingle.
Kunkel Park (Pennington, NJ)
Tucked away near downtown Pennington, Kunkel Park is a chill spot with shaded walking paths and a creek that dogs absolutely love. Keep your pup on-leash, and maybe pack a towel—because let’s be real, if there’s water, they’re going in.
Sayen House & Gardens (Hamilton, NJ)
For the pups who enjoy a more refined outing (and the humans who love a good photo op), Sayen House & Gardens is full of beautiful blooms, winding trails, and peaceful vibes. Dogs are allowed in the outdoor park areas on a leash. It’s perfect for early morning walks or quiet afternoon strolls.
A Few Quick Tips Before You Go
