Catoctin Mountain Dog Policy
Catoctin Mountain Park is Dog Friendly
Catoctin Mountain Park encompasses a recreation area in second growth forests, and offers outdoor activites such as hiking, rock climbing, fishing, and cross country skiing.
Catoctin Mountain Park is fairly dog friendly. Dogs are allowed on trails and in the main campground while on a leash. Dogs are not allowed on rock formations/rocking climbing, some campgrounds, inside buildings, and are not allowed to be left unattended.
Note: Catoctin Mountain Park used to run the BARK Ranger program, but as of early 2023, it is not running the program. They plan to announce on their social media accounts when they're back up and running on the program.
