No, leash required
About
The northern stretch of the Lakefront Trail, from Edgewater down through Uptown and Lakeview to Lincoln Park.
The northern third of Chicago's Lakefront Trail, running from Ardmore Avenue in Edgewater south to Fullerton. This is the stretch most north side dog owners use daily.
Since the 2018 separation project the trail is split into a bike path and a pedestrian path along its whole length, which makes walking a dog here considerably less fraught than it once was. Stay on the pedestrian side.
Montrose Beach and its dog beach sit directly on this segment, as does Puptown, so a walk here can easily include off-leash time.
Dogs must be leashed on the trail itself. The Park District only permits off-leash inside a designated Dog Friendly Area.
