There are no ropes or plexiglass type things to keep you contained. You are free to roam thru the ruts, along the ruts, around the ruts etc. We walked about 1/3 mile along the ruts and found a bunch…Full review by tomsD4280FO

South Wyoming Ave in Guernsey turns into the South Guernsey Road. The ruts are in a park to the right after you cross the Platte. Register Cliff is about a mile south and east down the South Guernsey Rd on the left. That road is washboard but short. Signs mark both. Also an old Pony Express Station.

I'm not aware of any restrictions against dogs, and I didn't see any signs saying they weren't allowed. Both areas are pretty "informal"; the Oregon Trail Ruts site has a paved parking area and a paved trail up to where the ruts are, with some interpretive signs, then you can wander along the rutted areas themselves, or just walk around in any of the areas off the paths. Register Cliff has a gravel road and a gravel parking area, and a short trail that goes in two directions off the parking area so you can see the carvings, again with some interpretive signs. There are also some trails along the river in the same area that you can walk along. Again, no restrictions that I'm aware of concerning dogs, especially on a leash - just use common sense, respect the history of the area, and you and your dog will have a great time!
