History

The Silver Falls State Park Off Leash Area East of Salem, Oregon, provides a unique and popular dog park experience nestled within the stunning backdrop of the state park.

Originally, this area developed organically as a designated spot for dogs to run and play within the park's boundaries.

Recognizing the increasing number of dog owners visiting the park, the Oregon Parks and Recreation Department (OPRD) informally established this off-leash area to cater to their needs while safeguarding the natural environment and other park visitors.

Over time, the area gained significant traction, becoming a well-loved local destination.

The OPRD observed a consistent demand for a safe and controlled space where dogs could expend energy and socialize.

Due to the park's popularity and the successful use of the area, the OPRD formally recognized its importance and implemented some basic guidelines and maintenance to ensure responsible dog ownership and a positive experience for all.

The location’s east side placement offers a buffer to other park areas and provides views of the surrounding landscape.

It remains a vital resource for dog owners seeking a natural and enjoyable outdoor experience within Silver Falls State Park.
