Nozomi Park

Check out the KOLI Equestrian Center in Chandler, Arizona, if you're interested in something other than dogs. You can go on guided trail rides from here with one of the cheerful, talkative guides who will teach you all about the horses and wildlife you could see. The center is located in the Gila River Indian Reservation, which is home to a herd of wild horses that you may observe on your ride. There are several themed rides, such as one where you get to go on a sunset ride and then immediately follow it with margaritas, chips, and salsa.Dogs are welcome at the center, but must be leashed at all times and are not permitted on the trail rides for safety reasons.

On the walking track around the lake in Desert Breeze Park, leashed dogs are welcome to accompany their owners. Plants are identified by interpretive trail signs, and wildlife can be viewed throughout the park. A playground, ball fields, picnic spaces, tennis courts, a splash pad, and restrooms are all available in the park. Dogs must be kept on a leash at all times while in the park.
