Celebrate National Dog Month with a morning adventure alongside your favorite four-legged friend at Jack London State Historic Park!

Join us for a relaxed, 3-mile guided walk through historic Beauty Ranch to the Wolf House ruins. Along the way, you and your pup will enjoy beautiful scenery, fascinating stories about the park’s history, and plenty of opportunities to sniff, explore, and take in the sights together.

There is no better place to celebrate dogs than Jack London State Historic Park. Jack London’s lifelong admiration for dogs was inspired by his experiences in the Klondike and immortalized in The Call of the Wild and White Fang. His unforgettable canine characters remind us of the loyalty, courage, and companionship that dogs bring to our lives, making this park the perfect place to honor our own furry companions.

This leisurely, community-focused walk includes water breaks, treat stops, and time to connect with fellow dog lovers. To ensure a comfortable experience for everyone, participation is limited to 15 dogs and their people.
