Shanghai Bay Forest National Forest Park
$ · Budget·Leashed only
A vast national forest park in Fengxian with roughly 85% forest coverage - a natural oxygen bar on Shanghai's southern edge. Dogs are allowed entry with no breed or size restrictions, so large dogs find a genuine playground here. Activities include forest go-karting, kayaking, horse riding and BBQ areas, with boating available at the Bird Lake area.
Why it made the list
One of the few major Shanghai green spaces that admits all dog breeds and sizes, with 16,000 mu of forest trails to explore.
Good to know before you go
Adult entry is 60 RMB; pets are admitted without breed or size limits per the sourcing article. The park is huge so driving inside or around is advisable; mosquito protection for dogs is important in summer. Hours were not published in the source. Pack food and plenty of water as on-site dining is limited.
Practical notes
Drive - the park is about an hour from downtown.
Do tick prevention before summer forest visits.

A coffee shop combined with a dog park, repeatedly highlighted as a standout of Shanghai's pet cafe scene. The setup lets owners order at the counter while their dogs play in the adjoining dog area.
An enclosed dog-only playground inside Qiantan Leisure Park and one of the few fully fenced off-leash spaces in central Shanghai. It is divided into separate areas for large dogs and small-to-medium dogs, with agility obstacles, a splashing pool area, drinking pools and paw-washing stations.
