Today was a gorgeous winter day to take a hike with my favorite trail partner, Rooney.
The best place to hike with your furry friends is First Landing State Park a.k.a Seashore State Park in Virginia Beach. You can access this park from the 64th St. entrance off of Pacific Ave. at the Oceanfront. If your lucky there usually is no guard at the guard post so you can park for free. Otherwise you can park on the street on 64th and walk in to the park. There are many trails where you can hike, bike or run. My favorite trail is the Cape Henry Trail which is to the left after you pass the guard station. This is a 6.1 mile trail that ends at a beach along Broad Bay. Locals call this area The Narrows. You can drive to this beach too, just follow the 64th street to the end where you will come to a parking lot. There is also a boat ramp here as well. During the summer, when the dogs are not allowed on Oceanfront beaches, The Narrows is the place to be for these canines. So enjoy the pictures below of my day with Rooney.
