Everywhere else, dogs are on a leash and you pick up after them

Langley has a lot of dogs and a good number of places to let them run. This is the list of areas the municipalities and Metro Vancouver officially name. Rules and hours are only given where the source gives them. Where a page is silent, we say so, and you should check the posted signs.

City of Langley

The City’s parks page lists off-leash areas at four parks.

  • Uplands Dog Off Leash Park: about 18 acres, fully fenced, with a walking path around the edge, five picnic tables, a paved parking lot and a washroom. The City lists it at 206 Street and 44A Avenue, and the Power Line Trail leads to it along with a Dog Park Loop Trail at 206 Street.
  • Linwood Park: 201A Street and Michaud Crescent. Washrooms are on the south side of the dog area, and the parking lot is off Michaud Crescent.
  • City Park: 207 Street between 48 and 51 Avenues. The City lists an off-leash dog park but gives no size or rules. Paved lots are on 205A Street and 207 Street.
  • Brydon Park: 198 Street and 53 Avenue. A large woodchipped off-leash area is at the west end of the gravel parking lot, with natural paths around it.

Township of Langley

The Township says dogs are welcome in all its parks on a leash, but never on sports fields, and owners must clean up straight away. Its designated off-leash areas are:

  • Bertrand Creek Dog Park
  • Walnut Grove Off-Leash Park
  • Noel Booth Community Park
  • Old Yale Park
  • Routley Park (listed at 19901 70 Avenue)
  • Yorkson Community Park

The Township’s page doesn’t give hours or fencing for each. Old Yale is the one with a detail page: the dog park is 4,770 square metres, built in 2015 in a natural wetland area near Old Yale Road and 224 Street. In April 2026 Council directed staff to divide it into two fenced off-leash areas, so expect changes there.

Regional parks

Metro Vancouver’s brochures describe three off-leash spots in Langley:

  • Campbell Valley: an off-leash area at 4 Avenue.
  • Derby Reach: at Edgewater Bar, west of the campground, with enclosures, paths and river access.
  • Aldergrove: the northeast corner, off Lefeuvre Road.

Everywhere else in these parks, dogs stay on a leash. Aldergrove’s Nature Discovery Area is dog-free, and on Pepin Brook Trail dogs stay leashed and out of the water.

The leash rules

The City of Langley’s animal control bylaw defines a leash as no longer than 1.8 metres, and treats a dog in a park or public place as “at large” unless it’s on a leash held by a competent person. The version we read was consolidated in 2018, so ask the City for the current one. Our city vs Township page explains why the two have different bylaws.

More places to walk with a dog are in our hikes and walks guide.
