Dog Park at Sandy Bottom Nature Park

Ridgway Park is a dog lover's paradise! The newly refurbished dog park area provides over an acre of safe space for dog owners to let their pets run free. Within the enclosures, there is covered and open seating for owners who want to enjoy the park with their pets, as well as a covered shelter outside for those who want to take in the beauty of the surrounding natural waterways. Both the small dog and all dog enclosures are ADA accessible, with drinking fountains for both canines and humans.

A boat/kayak launch, sports fields, charcoal grills, and an RV campground are all available at this riverfront park.

Kayak and paddleboat rentals, a playground, a stage pavilion, and picnic areas are available at this recreational beach park.

Fido Field, the city's first dog park, established in Riverview Farm Park in April 2006. Fido Field is a terrific spot to play with almost an acre of open space.

What was once a grassy field has transformed into a fun community for our animal friends. The Ghent Dog Park Association was founded in 2004 with the goal of creating a location full of barks, wagging tails, and furry kisses.

"Beautiful dog park on the river in Norfolk, where dogs may run around and swim if they like. Bring a toy, but expect it to become muddy and be shared with other dogs."
