Give your dog the gift of nature
Atlanta's original dog hiking company
We have access to some of Georgia’s best hikes and several of the best dog-friendly trails. Some of them are even located within Atlanta’s perimeter. These trails not only allow access to exploring new places and smelling new things, they also offer convenience – you’ll know your pooch is never too far away.
Give your dog the gift of regular exercise, social enrichment, and exploring the great outdoors.
Why dog hiking?
Well, it’s fun! Also, pooch experts agree that your dog’s happiness and health improves from getting regular, quality exercise. Just as you’re healthier and happier when you exercise – especially with your friends – the same also applies to your pooch.
Improved Behavior
Regular exercise develops motor skills, sharpens senses, adds to the complexity of brain development, enhances problem-solving and adaption, increases behavioral flexibility, and plays an instrumental role in building, maintaining, and strengthening social bonds.
Healthy Living
Mental and physical health are important for dogs. Regular exercise and socialization play an important role in a dog’s overall health. Moving their bodies helps improve digestive problems and consitpation. Aerobic exercise releases endorphis, which makes them happy!
Social Adventures
Regular socialization helps timid pooches become more socialized and accepting of new situations and environments, leading to improved self-confidence. It also aids to alleviate boredom, frustration, and stress relieving behaviors like aggression, excessive barking, digging, escaping, and chewing.
How it works
Full-service hikes for dogs of all ages & sizes
Your pooch’s safety is our number one priority, with fun coming in as a close second. Your pup will only be led by trained professional dog walkers on the best pooch-friendly trails in or near Atlanta.
You don’t have to worry about your pooch’s safety. We are trained trail guides, along with being certified in pet CPR, Wilderness First Aid, Pack Management, and Socialization techniques.
Bark Bus Pickup
Beep beep! The Bark Bus will pick up your pooch from your home on the designated day(s). Your dog will be comfortably transported in their own "poochie pad" to and from the trails in a protective crate.
Hike With Friends
The pawsome adventure begins with a 2-2.5 hour hike (packs of 3-4 dogs). We explore, have fun with friends, enjoy water and snack breaks, and get lots of positive reinforcement from the hike leader.
Receive Updates
We like to keep owners updated! You can count on us photographing and making videos from different parts of the hike. You'll receive text updates before, during, and after the hike.
Drop off at Home
We safely transport your pup back home and make sure they tinkle before we leave. Your pup will be tuckered out when you get home.

Let's hit the trail!
Plenty of smells for everyone
Whether your pup is a serious adventurer, a small pooch with a big heart for exploration and fun, or an adult senior, we ensure his or her group composition is suitable so friends can be made easily. While every dog is unique, we form our packs considering age, personality, energy levels, and goals from our pooch parents.
Whatever your dog’s personality and energy call for, we will deliver just that! Does your dog need to burn some serious energy with a hike? Or is your dog sophisticated and has realized that it’s okay to stop and smell the roses from time to time? Or maybe your dog is that dog that everyone wants to be friends with because they are just that much fun?

Peace of mind for dog owners
Your pup will be tuckered out when you get home.
Your pooch will be much more interested in sleeping than getting into the garbage or barking at every leaf that blows by your house.
Like humans, aerobic exercise releases endorphins. Endorphins are what make us happy. So your pooch will be happier than ever!
You will immediately start seeing improvements in your pup's personality and overall well-being.
Adventure, exploration, and enrichment await!
