The dog play areas in McLaren Park are among the largest in San Francisco and they offer dogs the opportunity to run free in both big fields and along trails. The majority of the area bound by Shelley Drive is open for off-leash exploration. Note that dogs must be on-leash at the Amphitheater during performances, camps, and events. Dogs also must be on-leash near children’s play areas and picnic areas. Please keep your dog on leash and stay on trail in the area south of the Jerry Garcia Amphitheater, in order to protect sensitive habitat.
