Where to walk your dog in Bozeman, MT: Peets Hill


If both you and your dog are social creatures, a very good place to take your dog for a walk in Bozeman, MT., is Peets Hill.
On the edge of the sprawling, pleasant Lindley Park and easily reached by either a short climb or a flat walk from a parking lot, Peets Hill offers acres of open space with sweeping views of the mountains and the sunset for humans, along with plenty of exploring and sniffing opportunities for dogs.
So, of course, it’s also very popular, and you will most assuredly encounter lots of other people and lots of other dogs, nearly all of whom are off-leash, though many signs advise you otherwise.
If your dog loves to have “speed dates” with other active dogs and you don’t mind chatting with lots of other dog owners, this is a great place for you.
But even if you or your dog are not-so-social, there is enough space for everyone for enjoy the park without interacting, and it’s still a great place for an on-leash walk.
The many charms of Peets Hill are best enjoyed by social butterflies.
