John Rudy County Park

This park is a hidden treasure. Has wonderful trails to walk/run. It's massive, has at least that I know of, 2 completely different entrances. I found that out by going to the Holiday Light Show. It was very dark & not a soul in sight. Thank goodness I decided to re-route and go back to a different starting point because I found the correct entrance, but the light show was incredible! The workers really turned the place into a magical adventure. My doggies and so many others loved it! The park is very dog friendly too!! I'm so glad we found this park.

For a little over a mile walk around the paved trail, you get two nice (for parks) bathroom stops, barked at by the puppies at the puppy park, chattered at by squirrels, and can visit people playing at the playground, horseshoe pits, soccer fields, cooking at the pavilions, and so much more. A great place for a lazy walk at any part of the day. Oh, and the free book library usually has some good gets. Just check ahead of time for events, as it is a popular place for charity tents and 5Ks.

Two separate fully fenced dog parks; one for smaller dogs; one for larger dogs. Off leash, free run dog park featuring trees, large rock clusters and seating. Water fountains turned on during warmer weather. All dog owners are responsible for cleaning up after their pet. Great dog park….on Saturday mornings I’ve seen 20+ dogs there.

Very nice park and parking at the northern Trailhead for the Heritage County Rail Trail. I still think of it as the York Heritage Rail Trail. Little hard to get to from I-83 with all the industry and warehouses. A lot of truck traffic

Jon Rudy Park is one of very few parks that are available for dogs in the area. There are two main areas for the dogs that are separated by how big your dog is one field for small dogs and one field for larger dogs. There are so much space for your dog to run and explore the only bad part is there are no trash cans close to the dog fields.
