Our dog-friendly Fredericton guide, from the Botanic Garden and Odell Park trails to a downtown patio, riverfront walks and the Comfort Inn.
Fredericton was an overnight stop on both our 2025 and 2026 drives east, with the Comfort Inn chosen for its position near Odell Park and the Fredericton Botanic Garden.
Fire-risk closures kept us out of the park and gardens in 2025, so we explored downtown and the Saint John River riverfront instead. On our 2026 return, both were open and we finally enjoyed a lovely hike from the garden paths into Odell Park’s woodland trails.
