Wheeler Dog Park
Energy-sorted off-leash yards with hilltop views in South Burlington
About this park
Wheeler is a grassy hilltop off-leash park in South Burlington that separates dogs by energy level rather than size, with a high-energy field and a calmer mellow side that can be combined into one large play area. A running-water faucet, bowls, benches, and well-stocked bag dispensers round out the setup, and on-leash trails loop around the perimeter for a longer walk. Reviewers call it one of the best-maintained dog parks in the area.

Before you go
Shade is limited to a few trees at the top of the hill, so bring water and pick an early or late slot on hot days. The grassy hillside wears thin and can get slippery after rain or snow.
