The dog run at Lincoln Park is the roomiest in Jersey City, with mature trees for shade, benches around the edge, a water fountain, and a kiddie pool that is big enough for large dogs in summer. Small dogs have their own fenced section.

The surrounding county park has long paths, lawns, and a lake for a leashed walk before or after.
