Davenport Beach

Shark Fin Cove welcomes pets. When you arrive, park in the little parking lot off Highway 1 and go down the left-hand route. Take the trail to the right for a magnificent sunset walk with your dog along the cliffs. Please keep in mind that dogs are permitted on the walk but not on the beach.

Leashed dogs are accepted on the Pipeline Road, Graham Hill Trail, Powder Mill Fire Road, and Meadow Trail in Henry Cowell Redwoods State Park. In the picnic area and campground, dogs are also welcome. Dogs must be kept on a leash at all times, and owners are responsible for cleaning up after their pets.

Dogs are allowed in Henry Cowell Redwoods State Park's picnic areas and campsites. Dogs are also welcome on a variety of routes, including the Meadow Trail, Pipeline Road, Graham Hill Trail, and Powder Mill Fire Road, unlike many other state parks in the area. The park was established to protect woods and regions adjacent to the San Lorenzo River's watershed, including a number of massive redwood trees. Every day from sunrise to sunset, the park is open, and the Visitor Center is open from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m.

Roaring Camp Railroads in Felton, California, offers dog-friendly train rides through the California Redwoods. You and Petzooie can take a trip through the spectacular redwood forest on an actual 19th century steam railway, which is located just a few miles from Santa Cruz. The conductor will entertain you with the history of the railroad and its engines, which were originally used to move gigantic redwood logs out of the forest, as you ride down the ancient, twisting narrow-gauge railway to the summit of Bear Mountain. Daily tours are available, with departure hours varying depending on the season.

Dogs are allowed in the parking lots and picnic areas at Natural Bridges State Beach, but they are not allowed on the trails or on the beach. Shorebirds, migrating whales, seals, and otters all call the area home. Every day of the week, from 8 a.m. to sunset, the park is open.

Pogonip Open Space allows leashed dogs to explore certain areas. There are roughly eleven and a half miles of trails at Pogonip. Dogs are not permitted on all routes due to the presence of sensitive habitats on others. Dog owners must clean up after their pets and keep them leashed in dog-friendly locations. Check out the trail map on Pogonip's official website for details on where Petzooie is allowed. Pogonip is open from sunrise to 7pm from April to October, and from sunrise to 4pm from November to March.
