Leashed dogs are welcome on trails including Byron Glacier, Portage Pass toward Portage Glacier and Portage Lake, and the Kenai Peninsula routes. Keep dogs leashed on forested trails so a loose dog does not scent a bear and draw it back toward you.
A 6-foot leash is required in developed recreation areas like campgrounds, picnic areas, and trailheads. On the general forest and most trails there is no leash law, but your dog must be under control at all times.
Service animals are allowed where pets are not, under the ADA. A leash is still required.
