Parque Nacional Enrique Olaya Herrera

FreeLeashed only

A 1930s park of brick paths, tall trees and monuments between Calles 36 and 39, on the Chapinero edge of downtown. Shaded, steep in places and full of students, it makes a good hot-weather walk.

Why it made the list

Official rules explicitly allow dogs and even address reactive ones, which most park pages avoid.

Good to know before you go

IDRD requires dogs on a lead or long line, never left unsupervised, and recommends a muzzle for dogs with temperament problems. Hours are 6:00–18:00 and entry is free. Some paths are steep and the upper forest reserve is not dog-walking terrain.

Practical notes

  • Stick to the lower brick paths, the upper reserve is steep
  • Mid-morning is calmest, students fill it at lunch

What is available on site

  • Shaded seating
  • Step-free access
