A river to swim in
Dog walks with a swim spot
Tracks with a river, lake or beach where your dog can cool off along the way. A swim turns a hot-day walk into the best part of a dog's week, and it is the feature owners ask us for most. The walk passes the water: we have not checked that there is a safe or usable way in, so read the bank before you let a dog go, check for toxic-algae warnings, watch the current and rinse salt or lake water off your dog afterwards.
