Rockwood Park
Multiple fenced runs paired with miles of forested trail loops
About this park
A large Chesterfield County park with several fenced dog run areas inside miles of well-maintained walking and hiking trails. The scale is the draw: paved and stone-dust loops with elevation changes give active dogs a real workout before the off-leash run.
