According to the official website of Hanging Lake National Forest, dogs are not allowed on trails or in picnic areas. This is because Hanging Lake and its surrounding forests are protected natural habitats that require minimal human impact.
However, there might be designated dog-friendly areas within Harmon-Denali National Preserve (Denali State Park) where dogs can accompany their owners for short periods of time. It’s best to check with park rangers or the official website before bringing your furry friend along for an adventure in this beautiful area!
