About this park

A long sandy stretch on Lake Champlain with a designated dog-friendly section behind the ice arena, connected by small hiking trails and a paved path that runs all the way to North Beach. The swimmable lakefront, workout stations, and grilling areas make it feel more like a full lakeside park than a single-purpose dog spot. Parking is plentiful in the Leddy lot and the bike path makes it easy to string together a longer outing.

💡

Before you go

Only the section behind the ice arena is dog-friendly. Read the posted signs before letting your dog onto the sand. The bike path is paved and smooth enough for strollers, wheels, and senior dogs who prefer flat ground.
