Comments: A friend told us about Walnet Creek being a leash-free park and we didn't know what to expect. We totally enjoyed it, as did our two dogs. Thinking it was a general park, we were happy to find trails. The dogs were able to run and splash in the creek while we hiked and enjoyed the outdoors. We went on a Sunday morning and there weren't many hikers or other dogs. We did come across about a dozen mountain bikers in the hour we were out. We're excited as to how close it is to where we live and will make this a regular outting.
