Barnaby Woods is a suburban neighborhood outside of Washington, D.C. and, as such, is largely artificial terrain. However, a park with some natural walking trails add some natural terrain to the area. Unfortunately, sidewalks are only found sporadically throughout Barnaby Woods, so you and your pup will frequently need to share the roadways with other pedestrians, cyclists, and any oncoming traffic. Please be sure to always be aware of your surroundings and keep a tight hold on your furry friend!

Additionally, Barnaby Woods is a rather hilly neighborhood, so you and Fido will definitely get a good workout in while exploring. If you have an older or less mobile pup, you may need to consider planning out your route. 

The boundaries of Barnaby Woods include Pinehurst Parkway Park to the north, Oregon Avenue and Rock Creek Park to the east, Tennyson Street to the south, and Western Avenue to the west. Western Avenue is also the Maryland-Washington, D.C. border.
