    Burgess Falls

    Burgess Falls in Sparta, TN is home to some great dog-friendly trails. Located on the Falling Water River, this day use park is home to four waterfalls that cascade down from over 250 feet in elevation. Dogs are welcome on the trails on a leash, as long as all mess is cleaned up after them. Be sure to check their website in advance, as the park is closed when the river is high or when there's snow on the roads and trails. Visit Website

      Couldn't Love It More!

      What a beautiful place to hike and had interesting history. Loved that we could take our best, furry friend along. Lots of people with dogs. Gets crowded, so get there early!

      Amazing Park

      Great views, trash cans along the trail to throw away any messes your pup made that you have had to clean up, all in all great place for a hike with your pup!
