Opened August 2008. This dog park will have three doggie cool down stations each can hold 6.5 gallons of water. The dog park is supported by The Richmond Recreation and Parks Foundation.
This quaint, country-style dog park offers plenty of place to run and socialize for dogs in and around downtown Richmond. I was passing through town on I-95 and decided to stop here to give my dogs a break from the road (It's ideally located between Raleigh-Durham and D.C.). It's located just a mile or so east from the Interstate. Just take the Broad Street exit and then follow that past Chimborazo Park. At the end of the park the road bears right. Follow it down the hill and you can't miss the Bark Park.
The rest of Chimborazo Park is also a great place to walk your dogs on-leash. Beautiful views are available just above the Bark Park from historic Powhatan Seat, a former royal residence of King Powhatan.
