Things to do with your Dog in Gettysburg
Gettysburg is home to the Gettysburg National Military Park, one of the largest sculpture gardens in the world. The Gettysburg Battlefield contains 1,300 monuments, markers, memorials, and plaques. Thirty miles of paved roads and well marked walking paths connect the magnificent sculptures all over the Battlefield. The Gettysburg Battlefield is a dog walker’s dream come true. The park is also over 9 square miles in size, which means there are always plenty of new places to explore with your dog on a leash. The only limitations placed on dog owners is that dogs are not allowed inside any cemetery, building, or museum.
