Power Lines Dog Park

It's good for hiking with dogs.Not really playtime we saw the dogs because it's such a big space.You don't see other dogs too much.

A really great spot. Mostly friendly folks and good dogs who have formed a lovely community around this dog oasis. They bring in lots of water and have set up chairs, benches, umbrellas for human comfort. It’s a huge area with some nice views at the mid-park peak. There is a ton of space to explore. Some maps show an address/entrance at the far end away from Encinitas Ave. but there are gates here and there along its length, including directly off Encinitas Ave. just down from Cerró but there’s no parking there. You should be able to park in adjacent neighborhoods without a problem. We visted midday on a Monday and on a Wednesday evening and there were several dogs and people but it was relatively quiet both times. The terrain is a bit rough and rocky in spots and it was dry, sandy, and dusty, but there are ruts from erosion so it seems it is muddy at times. There are a lot of foxtails so be aware and check your pups’ paws and ears after a visit. There are coyotes in the area so be aware at dusk. They don’t show themselves often but live not far away and have taken pets from nearby neighborhoods.

Wow! Coming from the Bay Area, I never expected to find a "dog park" like this. This was the perfect place to run my lab off leash without worrying about the "off duty" doggie cops 😆! My lab is snoring so loud I might have to put ear plugs in!

Wonderful space for all kinds of dogs. You can walk or stay in one area. Located between Mountain View and Encinitas Boulevard, It provides more than enough space for dogs to get exercise and socialization. Or you can throw a ball with your socially anxious dog, and avoid other dogs.

The dog park is great! Lots of space for the dogs to run, bring water since the park gets hot in the afternoon . Limited shade.
