Dog parks in Palm Desert, CA

Palm Desert is the middle of the Coachella Valley and its main shopping and dining hub.

Its residents call local businesses for everything from roofing and air conditioning to dinner on El Paseo.

Public off-leash dog parks run by valley cities, most with separate areas for large and small dogs. Many close for a few weeks each fall for overseeding, so check the city page before you go.
