Colorado is known for its many dog-friendly activities. Our
beautiful state’s hiking trails, reservoirs, and dog parks provide ample play
space for our four-legged friends. Additionally, Longmont residents looking to
pal around town with Fido can hang out at these awesome locales.
Avery Brewing
This brewery is famous for its outdoor space. Avery Brewing’s patio is popular with
cyclists, joggers, and hikers for a celebratory brew, but dog lovers can also
find a warm welcome. The grassy lawn is picturesque with its Flatirons
backdrop. Avery’s popular and delicious beers attract Boulder and Longmont
residents of all walks of life, making this a great place to meet other community
members and make new friends.
Rough and Ready Dog Park
This neighborhood park is a favorite among area dog owners
and is known for its safe, friendly environment. The off-leash exercise area is fantastic for energetic dogs and young pups who need to
stretch their legs. Afterward, walk the labyrinth or picnic at one of the
park’s convenient grilling areas.
Coot Lake
Well-maintained, gravel trails wind around this picturesque
lake just south of Longmont. Stick to the loop around Coot Lake
for a short sunset stroll or venture off on other pathways for a long trail run
that your dog will certainly love.
Oskar Blues Brewing
This brewery is a national favorite, and fortunately for
Longmont residents, we have one of its taprooms
in our backyard. Warm spring weather opens up the patio for lounging and
Longmont locals flock ready for a taste of new summertime beers. The restaurant
also has an awesome food menu so stay for lunch or dinner and enjoy a delicious
meal.
Union Reservoir Nature Area
A quieter option than Boulder Reservoir, this northern recreational area offers peaceful views of
Longmont’s rolling hills and Longs Peak backdrop.
Dogs love splashing about in the sparkling, cool waters, while their adults picnic
on the shore. Buy a pass to Union Reservoir and enjoy this scenic spot 365 days a year.
Dog-Friendly Meet Ups
Because many of Longmont’s residents are crazy about
canines, there are ample meetups
focused on doggie play dates and making new friends. From hangouts focused on
certain breeds to gatherings geared toward socializing little puppies, there’s
something for dog lovers of all kinds.
The LoBo Trail
Link Boulder and Longmont with this pretty maintained trail. Adventure for the day with your furry friend and explore downtown Longmont, Niwot, Gunbarrel, and Boulder. Get some friends together for
lunch on the patio, frisbee in the park, and spend time outdoors with mankind’s
best friend.
