Travels with Rhea

Can your dog actually hike here?

Can dogs hike in Indiana Dunes National Park?

Yes Yes. A leashed dog can use the trails.

Leashed dogs are allowed on every park beach year-round (the West Beach swim area only in summer) and on most trails.

Where dogs can go

The Lake Michigan beaches and most trails, on a 6-ft leash.

Watch out for

Not on Pinhook Bog Trail or the equestrian Glenwood Dunes trails. The state park inside it bans dogs from its beach.

IN. On our route: around Oct 15 to 16. Rules change: check the park's own pet page before you go. Rhea is never boarded or kenneled; where she can't go, we find somewhere she can.
